P5 Out of Storage

:
Mazda Protege5
I got my daughter's P5 out of storage yesterday. No storage related issues. After a brief prime, the engine fired right up. Tires still had 34 PSI in them.

When I washed it today, I noticed the right headlight was getting fogged up inside. I wouldn't be so bad if you didn't need to remove the friggin' bumper cover to remove the headlight. Also, a small rust spot was starting behind the right rear wheel well, about where the fender flare meets the bumper cover. You can see and feel the bubbles starting. The backside feels clean. I need to remove the cover once I get the replacement cover painted. So, I'll deal with it then.
 
Those headlights are expensive at about $125+ a piece new. Used isn't a whole lot better. I found a P5 in a U-pull-it place. Hopefully, the front end isn't bashed in or the headlight isn't leaking.

Now, if I replace the light, the front bumper cover would need to come off. It might be a good time to get it repainted as it has a bad case of road rash.
