Found a flaw in the Z trim

USINC97 · 07-21-2012, 04:56 PM

Got our Z in 1/2010. Was cleaning it up today and noticed a flaw in the right side door rubber trim. Curious if I am the only one.

2009 Z Couple. Appears the trim did not get "trimmed" when it was installed.

I don't see that on ours. But, I have a roadster...

No issue here

w0rM · 07-21-2012, 06:48 PM

My 12 base doesn't have it either.

.c2 · 07-21-2012, 07:12 PM

Don't have that issue on my 09 one

muzik212 · 07-21-2012, 07:29 PM

I had the exact same thing on the driver side door of my 09. I was able to tuck it right into place and it only occurred in that one spot.

Try a hard squeegee and push it in.

I don't have that. Every car has some little flaw or imperfection.

I have the same defect on the drivers door of my 2010. Haven't tried to fix it. It looks like the trim is uneven......same as yours.

Don't mean to be rude, but really? Come on man. It's a car. It's not perfect.

My friend just got a Buick Verano 2 days ago for a new DD and one of the tweeter covers is already bulging off. Compared to that, this is nothing! It isn't that obvious and I'd be surprised if anyone notices it.

Thanks, I will see if I can tuck it back in.

USINC97 · 07-22-2012, 08:55 AM

Got It. Thanks for the tip.

kevr6 · 07-22-2012, 09:02 AM

Same thing here! I just ignored it

Compdoc777 · 07-22-2012, 09:08 AM

I have the same thing on my 11 370z sport I thought they stuck out further to protect stuff.
