Should dealer replace or repair?

yea how I feel about Nissan and I cannot wait to get my car back already. It has been a week. My service advisor is great but this is beyond his power. I'll see what I can do when I see them this Tuesday.

Perhaps you can ask them to reimburse you for the stickers....

These things chip so easy it is not funny. I had no issues with my gray 2012 calipers, but my red 2013 calipers chipped very easily during a brake pad install. Not sure how I did it but it happened.

Nissan Corporate is your friend if the dealer gives you any resistance fixing the calipers back to in the condition they were when the car was dropped off. If that means replacing the calipers to get the logo, then that's what they should do. If you accept something less, it should be on your own terms; don't let the dealer force you to compromise. If powdercoating, I would make them do all four calipers to match (with warranty in writing).

Seems like a good opportunity to get a sweet custom color and akebono decals
