My convertible top 2015 370Z frame (plastic) frame broke and I am not under warranty - yes it is $18,000 to replace since they don't sell the frame separately - you have to buy the whole "kit" - trying to get Nissan North America to help (wrote to CEO and several VP's multiple times - say they are trying to locate a used one for me - we will see) - I am heartbroken my convertible is "useless" at the moment. Have mechanic looking for me also.

My 2010 Roadster's top is broken as well.... Since it is out of warranty, Nissan refused to replace it even though I do not drive the car often (11 years and only 17,000 miles). I gave up on contacting Nissan since they always give me the run around.
My heart is also broken because the car is worthless without a working top. I will try to trouble shoot to see what's wrong and will attempt to fix it myself sometime next week or so.

Let us know how it works out. I also have a 2010 ZR with just less than 18K miles...
