Rattling to pieces

I'm closing in on 600 miles with my Roketa DB07 and things just seem to keep falling off. Even with Loctite. My right mirror (no kidding) has rattled off the mirror stem and flew off while I was on the highway. The heat guard on the exhaust pipe (near my leg) rattled off one of it's bolts and now it's sort of jerry rigged with another bolt and a bunch of washers. The oil cap has sort of fallen apart. Not the piece that actually screws into the engine and has the dipstick on it, but the metallic outside part that you would touch. Now it's going to be hard to open.

Needless to say, I'm fearful of how much more damage I can sustain here. When does the motor itself rattle off? Has anyone else had any trouble like this, and do you think xxx-motorsports will replace my mirror and maybe other parts? I have the extra 1 year of warranty. I need to get this fixed ASAP so I can go get my full license. I've been driving around with my permit, which does not allow you to drive after dark, and I work nightshift haha.
