I looked at an old PW 350z in a parking lot the other day and it looked fine, just a tad bit off, the usual. Had to be at least 4-5 years old.

Update:

Got a call back from Nissan today and they will pay for my front and rear bumpers to get resprayed.

Bad news is I have a clear bra on the front bumper that is less than 2 weeks old! Grrrr!

Nissan paid to have my sides resprayed as well. Went from about 5-6 shades off to about 1 shade, which makes me a lot happier :tup:

im pretty sure everything match on the car, but when i leave work ill check it out.

My plastic parts don't match the metals parts perfectly either, but you can only tell in certain lighting. Doesn't really bother me.

Yea I got my car back 3 weeks ago. The white matches perfectly, but now the pearl in the paint doesn't. Oh well.

If you guys take it back to the dealership and complain, I don't think Nissan will turn you away. I think its more of a customer service/satisfaction issue. They want to keep their customers happy.

ok i just bought a pearl white Z and my bumpers and side skirts are WAY WAY off especially my rear bumper. Ive already talked to Nissan USA and they said they are going to call the dealer and get back to me in the next few days. I was very polite over the phone but now im worried I down played it by being too nice, im kinda freaking out so for those of you who had they're cars resprayed can you please let me know anything that will help me in my dealings with Nissan USA and help me to get my bumpers resprayed? Thanks for the help everyone!!!

Not sure. I took the advice of chuck and took it straight to the service manager. Snapped some photos, and three days later got a call from the serv manager that the claim was approved.

USAFstevo 06-10-2010 10:31 AM

ok so my service manager agreed with me and called nissan saying that it needed to be repainted but nissan usa said no, they said that this is a common problem because of the parts being painted at a different plant and they were not going to do anything about it. please guys what do I do I havent called nissan usa back yet i just talked to my service manager about it, he told me he would be glad to have my back and that I can mention his name. Please help what do I do guys!?

^that sucks. You got pm.

JB-370z 06-10-2010 04:05 PM

Mine is fucl<ed too!

chuckd05 06-11-2010 10:37 AM

They painted mine with zEro resistance what's so ever. Maybe the service managers pictures did not come out that clear. Go at night park under street light and your car will be two tone like no other time. As long as he actualy sends them through I bet there cover it . They did for Many others.

I would also go to another dealership and try there
too.

So, I finally got a dealer to agree to paint the sideskirts, but he swears they won't look any better, maybe even worse. That's a good convincing line. What would you do, would you have them paint them, and have them maybe be even worse? It sucks that all of these PWs have this problem (slight difference in my sideskirts). If I could do it all over again, anal as I am, I wouldn't have bought the white.

370Z JT 08-30-2010 08:25 PM

^any competant paint shop can match the color. My bumpers match and my shine auto rear spats match.
