Default B-pillar broken.

Hey guys. Just wanted to share and maybe someone to give me any suggestions on how to replace/fix my B-pillar.

So here is the story. I was at a used bookstore and I went to place some things I had bought in the cubby behind my seat. As I stood up to close the door, the edge of the B-pillar got caught in my jacket pocket. I heard a crack and this was a result... I was so sad. I got over it and then an hour later a meter maid gave me a $40 ticket! Not a good day for my Z.

Sorry to see that

I would temporarily krazy glue it back on if possible? And either put up a Wanted ad to save a few bucks or head to the dealer to order that piece.

I tried to look for it on Courtesy Nissans site for a price but I had no luck.

Time to upgrade to carbon fiber (if you're into that kind of stuff).

Glue it and sand it to smooth and di noc wrap it. I think that's your cheapest route
