Rubber isolators starting to come off?
 

Has anyone been experiencing the rubber isolators starting to pop out more? I'm thinking it could be the headlights not aligned properly with the front fender causing it to move upwards a bit. This is only one side of the headlight.

I just noticed the exact same thing this weekend when washing the car.

Is this the problem your describing?

Yep, one of mine is doing it too, except that after I blacked out my headlight housings, I fixed it upon reseating the headlights into the car. I assume it'll come creeping back up.

I assume one could just push this back down with something soft enough not to worry about scratching the paint, correct?

that's exactly what i'm talking about. I tried to push it back in, but it seems like i would have to remove the headlight to do that. i'll probably just leave it alone and hope it doesn't completely come off. I'm sure it's cheap to purchase one but just bothers me that the Z has so many minor issues.

can someone post a summary as I am not following completely, I am assuming that there are these little pads that are between the headlight housing and the fenders?

Thanks,

Just want to keep an eye out as it seems odd to have these there in the first place.

I'm going to leave mine till the next service and have it fixed by the dealer, plus a few other issues. No big deal, these things happen.

The one on my driver's side head light come completely out a while ago.

Did you replace it or does it not pose any issues?

YES! Both of my headlights now have those rubber tabs poking up. Tried to push them back down without success.

Mine is an early build #1208 and it's fine.

Looks like people with these cosmetic issues need to visit there local dealer and ask why and for them to fix it. I have a January build and have not seen these issues yet. I will keep these in mind if it happens.

These are the type of small annoyances that you need to report at your dealership while getting your oil changes. These are warranteed issues that you don't have to worry about.
Plus making the complaint will make nissan make a better fitting isolator.

This is y buying 1st year sucks!
Glad I chose to wait for 40th anniversary Z!
