What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

Today is our one year anniversary! Sure, she's gotten bigger and put on some pounds but she still makes me smile everytime we're together. To celebrate the occasion I recreated our first time together. This weekend, when I have more time, I'm planning some adventure time, a gentle bath, and then a nice hand waxing.

I noticed these "scratches" on my driver side tail light yesterday. They definitely weren't there the day before as I had washed the truck. I can't tell if they're scratches, cracks, etc. At first I thought maybe I got sand blasted by something but there's no damage anywhere else just the tail light housing. It also doesn't seem like it was an impact since there's no scuffs or dents and it all seems to be going the same direction.

Will I probably have condensation issues in the future? Any ideas what the cause was?

(On a side note, I just learned it's really hard taking a picture of a reflective surface lol)

Nope I haven't. I hand washed the truck literally the day before and there wasn't anything. Got home from work the next day and noticed it right away. I looked at it closer and it doesn't seem like it's cracks more like surface scratches. On the bright side at least I don't have to worry about any condensation? Lol. Maybe I got whacked by a bag or something. :noidea:

Unfortunately I forgot to take before pictures showing the illumination in the vehicle, but so far it looks to be decently brighter. Even if it's not much brighter, the light is "cleaner" looking.
 
Does ordering parts count? New to me 2010 getting a suspension upgrade. Talked with Dan today at Wheelers and ordered some parts.

Fox 2.5 Coilovers (extended travel)
Fox 2.0 rears
Total Chaos UCA
T13 Springs

Should have them in a couple days!
