Insurance cheaper on S than Base??

Is this the cover on top of the interior door handle?

My passenger side is all scratched up for some reason. I think I found the part but it says it doesn't fit my 04 s?

Remove white wax residue from rear bumper plastic bumper things

Sorry I'm not sure what the two bumps by the rear plate are called. I foolishly got compound residue on them. I've tried, so far, without success:


Wd40
Goof off
