Any way to help my finch's beak grow back?

Hi everyone I recently got a new male zebra finch from my local pet store and the poor little guy has a cut on the left side of his beak and it seems like some of his beak eroded away on the sides as well (like the side of his mouth). I didn't realize that he had this issue until after I purchased him (the cage was high up and I'm short so) I knew that he was missing some feathers from other finches bullying him because the cage was overcrowded but I wasn't expecting the beak thing. He doesn't seem to be in pain and is a pretty happy and chill little guy he loves his temporary cage (I have him isolated from my other birds bc he's new and because I want him to be healed up before I introduce him). I can post a picture of him later when I get a higher quality pic of him. Anyways I'm giving him egg food, dried greens, grit, and Volkman Finch seed mix currently. I also gave him a mineral block and a cuttlebone and I wanted to know if all this is enough or if I need to give him more. I've owned zebra finches for over ten years now but this is the first time I've had to deal with a beak injury so I wanted to make sure that I'm feeding him properly

Any way to make my 2005 LS more fuel efficient?

Hi everybody I have a 2005 LS430 Sport that I got back in December and while I do love the car, I really wish it got some more mileage in it!! I only drive it around town and on a half tank of gas my mileage is usually about 160-170 which is a little frustrating to be honest. Before I got the car I was aware of this being common with LS models, I used to have a 2001 LS (we gave that away sadly) and that one got similar mileage. Is there some part that I might need to replace or swap out for something better? When I bought the car the dealer told me that it was well taken care of for many years and got maintenance done regularly and it runs like a dream so I'm not sure if I should take it in to get looked at or to see if there's any codes that need to be read. Any advice is appreciated!
