Nissan Approved Bumper Repaint

RobMan · 08-28-2012, 01:53 PM

I only hand wash my car, never been thru a machine. I looked at 3 other Nismo's before buying mine and out of the 3 that I saw there was only 1 that didn't have the paint peel on the rear bumper. It is the actual paint and not the clear coat. I orginally thought it was like some left over dealer white film they put on new cars to protect the paint but nope it was the actual paint. I hope to have the car back by the weekend but I am told the body shop is pretty busy so it might be next week sometime. I am sure they will put it all back together just fine but it drives me crazy thinking this car that I baby and only drive very sparingly will have to have the rear bumper taken off and replaced. Seems like nothing ever fits as good as factory once it has been removed.
