You're not supposed to wax the car right before you put the tape down ;) :p

OP just screw it... literally.

There are still good dealerships out there (the service at my nearby Nissan location is the reason we bought another Nissan for my wife when the time came) where they go out of their way to make things right. It's just unfortunate that they are so hard to find these days.

You mean that not only I have to work to afford it, but I have to wash the Z too... damnnnnn :shakes head:

Just kidding.

I prepped the hatch well in the process. Its more of the fact that after I put it on the hatch, it was never able to dry and set because of how hot and humid it was last summer.
So I learned my lesson the hard way and decided to work a bit harder and smarter to have the money to pay my shop to install my parts including the replacement spoiler I have on there now.
