will post the pics soon... haven't taken any yet... BUT....

last night my girlfriend got a bit pissed at me as we were arguing in the car... when she got out she threw the passenger door open as hard as she could... it swung so hard it flexed the door stop mount and the front edge of the door contacted the hinges and put two little dents on the front edge of the door.... about 1/4" x 1/4" dents... all the way to the metal... some of the pain has flaked off. It's small and most people wouldn't notice it but damn!

I coulnd't show my anger at the damage or she would have got even more pissed thinking I care more about the car than her...

damn woman.....

My door was dented the same way. Though not from my girlfriend (or wife) throwing the car door open. My damage is pretty noticible and I am working with Nissan to get this hopefully fixed. My view is that there is not enough clearence between the door and the hinge. They should have made the door stop strap shorter so that the door can't fully open up and hit the hinge. Either that or make the hinge smaller so it won't come close. There are only a few millimiters of clearence and when I checked a few other cars they had up to an inch of clearence. N74dV please PM me your contact info so we can work with Nissan on this. The nissan rep is coming out to look at the car soon.

no f*ckin way dude...if my chick did that sh*t...she would get chewed out...I dont care WHAT she was yelling at me for. The argument would have ended there, and I would get a big fat apology, then she could yell at me again...but if your woman doesnt KNOW FOR A FACT how important the Z is to you then

a) the Z is not that important to you, so shame on you!

b) you definitely need to open the gates of communication
or

c) cut off that gangrene

Cristine would **** a brick sideways if she did that to my car!
