Maybe has something to do with jap spec?... How can i check if my car is JDM??

Nothing like that on US spec cars....but our plate styles (and mounts) are different..

Mine has the license plate holder screwed into the black trim "mouth", and the holder itself wraps up and over the bumper where your holes are. The dealer ended up accidentally putting some marks on my bumper by using screws that were too long for the plate. I guess for South Africa they didn't bother to engineer a proper plate holder if it was a non-standard size.

Wrong! Nissan give "technical" written instructions to the dealers to drill two 2" holes on the bumper to attach the license plate holder because the screws that hold the license plate are too long.

Which is freaking STUPID!

My dealer made scratches on my bumper too because of tech used long screw...:shakes head:
but they repaint whole front bumper for me last week.:icon18:

holy crap!

It's also in the manual.

who the hell reads the manual anyway? half of the people here dont read manuals including the oldguy. ;)

lol

Good, since you read the manual. In what section and page you found the instructions? Because Nissan Co. is denying that they wrote those instructions for the holes to be drill.

Thanks!

yah, dealers dont read the manual either looking at their botched splash guard install....

Am I the only one who saw this pic, and thought .. "Wow, that dude looks like Charlie Chaplin" ??

Common sense is a lost art...:ugh2:

Splash Guards are installed by Nissan.:tiphat:

:icon23: should be checked by dealer.

therefore, dealer's fault. :icon17::p ;)
