Maybe they used your car as a ramp?

They will fix the damage through their insurance, but the car is not the same after. It might look fine for 2-3 years, but it will be different a few years from now.

I have a new roof and hatch on mine.. Depending on who does the work and how bad it is, may not be so bad. I had to have mine reskinned, and they left all the support there. You pretty much cannot tell my car had any work on it, even matched the paint perfectly. Regarding the car going bad in 3 years, yea it's a 370Z, not a carton of milk. This is nonsense. Any good body shop will warranty their work for life.

what part of Nor-Cal are you in?

San Jose.

What good does a lifetime warranty do when the paint peels every year and the paint doesn't match, so I can take it back in every year to have it resprayed?

Mt Tam I am

I was just thinking about you the other day when I was experiencing fuel starvation.

I'm sorry to read this thread. San Jose ought to have plenty of body shops that can handle it. Ask one of those two Z specialists whom they'd recommend perhaps.

A custom paint job may be in all our futures.


Good luck.

Brother, I know having your car fùcked my the shipping company sucks, but be a BIT more positive.
Nissan has THE WORST paint I have ever seen (aside from black Pry-uses). So almost no one can do worse.
And when you have new pieces the quality of paint will be amazing, and as for matching, and shop worth it's salt can match anything, I don't know why every bítches and moans about pearl white and this that being three stage and what not. A body shop should be able to match it easily.
And I'm SURE there is at LEAST one shop in ALLLLLLL of Nor Cal that can paint a body panel.

You even said that you're going to sell the car after the pieces get replaced and painted, if you're still worried, sue for devaluation, although there really isn't any because it's not going to go on the CarFax, (in reality, it's only devalued to you)
