bengazzard Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 Well last night I arrived at the station carpark very tired from working like hell.. Managed to scratch and dent the rear wheel arch in a multi story! Gutted.. Kicking my self so hard for this one..!!! On arriving home to inspect the damage further realised that some lil sh*t nicked the badge off the front bumper.. On top of the scratches I recieved late last month on the front bumper (no fault of mine) I've decided to get a quote from chips away.. I know a few people on here have used them.. Are they pretty reasonable? Quality of the paint match etc? The Zs looking a little shabby right now!! Not liking it! Now to find replacement badges.. Tempted by those Z ones!! Quote
350Znismo Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 Sorry to here your Zeds a little under the weather, The zed badges are so smart, i changed mine, but if you want my old nissan badge just pm me and i will post it to you when i get home. Regards Martin Quote
M13KYF Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 Bad luck Ben. See if Chris at Funkystyling is interested in doing another group buy. May be some other members interested in the badges to. Quote
lomoto Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 yes, not a good day oh well looking on the bright side you'll improve it when it gets painted Quote

Must've been something in the air yesterday then, I did exactly the same. Being ultra careful through the stupidly narrow ramps and just caught the offside rear wheel. Again, Chipsaway on the way me thinks. My badge stayed intact, but some goon at the bottom of the same ramp decided he wasn't going to stop as I got to the bottom and had to brake to stop, with obvious consequences, one scrapped bit of black plastic. With the cracked rear bumper and ding in the rear wheel arch, I'm doing pretty well this week! So me too, one slightly shabby Zed at the mo, not ideal. Which means an excuse for treating myself to new 19's, front splitter and once over from the body shop....!! Quote
Liam's Z Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 Why would anyone want 2 nick that horrible Nissan Burger badge??? FFS you can get em on Micra's Feel for your bad luck mate,,, take this as an opportunity to improve the looks of your car P.s A nice set of mud gaurds would probably cover this imo Quote
