The good part it was in the inside part of the wheel so it cant be seen from the outside. But still bit my lip for doing so...
Eh, no one will ever see it and the wheel will work just fine. Chalk it up to a learning experience.

I feel your paint I'm pretty careful and within the first few months of ownership I scraped along the underside of my sideskirt on a stupid hidden piece of concrete taking a girl to jack in the box, you can't see it but I know it's there

Any sort of damage to the Z is gut wrenching...

I have one of these as well. Not sideskirt but front under body. Ah well. It's just a car right? God forbid that BC show up and see that I just actually wrote that.

I get it. I have a sliver of bumper missing and it killed me to know that for the first couple months. I've settled down about it, though. It's just not worth $1k to fix something so small.

It's inconspicuous, but not invisible

Also, the bit I lost had some attachment points for the under tray and front section of the fender liner. I've already lost one replacement fender liner section because of poor attachment.

Mmmm, bummer. Winter is a good time to resolve that kinda stuff.

I rode over a parking spot curb a little. Can't even see it. So, I'll leave it alone. The wheel is annoying but ... may have to wait until the boy is out of college to fix it.
