Episode III: There’s No Hope

Once again, I drive 90 minutes through horrendous Washington DC beltway traffic to the dealership to get the front end chin spoiler installed, that was supposed to come with it upon delivery back in September. I arrive and EVERYONE kissed my ***. So much so that it was sorta scary. I guess the 45 minute conversation I had with the Service Manager last month had some effect.

I leave my car with them and then go outside and walk around their lot looking at all the cars for about 45 minutes. I got tired of that so I decided to go inside and wait in their waiting room. On the way in the Service Advisor grabs me and says “Well, this is really turning out to be a major science project”. I didn’t take that statement to mean anything good. She sat me down and VERY politely explained that according to the directions, the front bumper needs to be removed and holes need to be punched for the installation. I explained to her several people I speak to on this forum have installed it without removing the bumper and have had no issues. Of course she dismisses that as pure crazy talk and proceeds to tell me they want to have their body shop do the install.

So now I have to travel back up there on the 23rd and leave it with their body shop, who I have had major issues with in the past.

On further note, I pointed out to them 3 Z’s on their lot that are supposed to have the front end chin spoiler, but don’t.

WOW! Sounds like you should go to another Nissan dealership...and ask if they know of what part you are talking about. Maybe have them call your dealership for explanation. I bought the front chin aero deflector from Nissan Z 300ZX 350Z 370z aftermarket part and accessories - Ultimate Z ( go under 370z and than body)
and you'll find the part you are looking for. i suggest you get the part and take it to a reputable body shop for install. Or do it yourself. I think it needs a hole on both sides and double sided tape.
