I think you need valve cover gaskets not head gaskets?? The valve covers leak and oil runs down...

Luckily the car is still in the paint shop, tomorrow I will go to buy the valve cover gasket! thank you so much!

Looking good! Just curious why didn’t they pull the left mirror, door mldgs and rear bumper cover off?
A lot apart and those few things would have been better. Also the door mirrors have rubber seals where they meet the door that usually deteriorate and need replacing.

The left rearview mirror is not in good condition, if we removed it we were going to have a problem when we put it back, what I did was to order another one together with the rear bumper trim set, I will save paint so that when it arrives I will only have to remove it and install it.
The rear bumper had a small crack where it meets the center trim, I had it repaired and painted and thought about ordering the trim but what I will do is cover the trim with plastidip
The door mldgs, I honestly don't know why we don't remove it, we always do....uhggg
Next Tuesday I'm going to take it to the mechanic shop to install everything I bought, then back to the paint shop to repolish and shine it.
The TCU is almost here and I already have the RaceIQ tune cable.
