hummm? the 370Z tails you need to remove the trunk liner and there's a nut you need to remove in order to pull it off the car without any real force.

there are 3 bolts if I remember correctly. Still, where the seal is around the light, it was stuck to the body pretty good. Also, one of the clips on the housing didn't want to let go. In the end it broke. Didn't matter as I was replacing the housing, but still.

true...this time. I've already had one door ding and a hood ding, I'm pretty sure one if not both of those happened at work as well.

Probably right. Or it could be someone that doesn't even work with you. Either way, it sucks. I carry OEM parts. If you want to PM me with your zip code, I can get you a price on a new light with a shipping quote. From the sounds of it (tail light, door, hood) you need to invest in a good alarm with a radar sensor and a pager.

lol possible. Like your friend says, Porsche owners do get a lock of "haters."

That is why I don't drive my car to work. A lot of construction, potholes everywhere, poor parking, and construction vehicles spreading gravel & mud everywhere.

And overall people don't care!

So I drive my "huptie".

Sorry to hear that man it sucks my Z is my daily driver and at work they act like it is a ferarri or something the way they talk about it I'm just waiting to come out and see it f'd up. Not to mention last year the car i had before my Z got rear ended while i was asleep and they drove off it was terrible. Be careful out there people are shady and haters are plenty.
