Don't resort to lying and fraud. Anyone looking at the damage will know what happened. You screwed up, admit it, get it fixed and move on..
Ditto.

got a quote... $330. thats with me taking off the other badge and bringing the bumper to them. i might just shift the 370z emblem to the other side to cover up the damage. or get a fairladyz emblem. sigh...

Sorry it isn't going to be a free fix! :(

That's word for word the experience I had with my Z! :icon18:

I would pay the 330.00 in a heartbeat! Peace of mind is worth it. I was prepared to pay that for my one little tiny scratch!

Gather some other bids too. Also, the metallic paint "flop" can be tricky without the rest of the car present, and just the bumper fascia.

Yeahhhhh.....thats what happens when you dont warm that pesky glue up enough and just rip the emblem off. Sorry, dude. Gotta be careful.

Best bet would've been to have the dealer remove it before the purchase. That kills me they put a sticker on to begin with.

Dealer took mine off for free. You should have made its removal a condition for closing. Get your beautiful car professionally repaired and enjoy. Next time you'll know.

Damn, that sucks. Hope you can fix it. I'm so glad we don't have to deal with those horrible dealer stickers here in Cali.

and horse, some dealerships still put stickers out here in CA

This is exactly what I requested from Lou when I purchased at Fusz Nissan. When I picked the car up for delivery, it was late and I had forgotten to check. But Lou made a point to bring it to my attention that they indeed ensured no sticker on the car.

I think any sales team should recognize that this is an enthusiast's car, and small details such as this are important.

Even after taking delivery, I would return to the dealership and request it removed. I would not try it myself.

Put a Nismo sticker or something to cover it up. I know it doesn't fix the problem but you might be surprised how well it would work =).
