Damaged my Z:(
Last night I came from my mothers home with my wife. When I got home, I have a routine for parking my Z . Mind you that my garage door is old school Manual. When, I was closing it the right side spring snaped and hit the passenger side of my Z. It caused two small dents,and the weather strip by the window needs to be replaced. But, one of the dings has chipped paint. I called Marrone Nissan of Pembroke pines. Anyways, I dropped my plans today and dropped the car off. The estamite came out to $850.00. It should be ready by friday the service guy told me. The car will be painted tommarow. For fixing 2 minor dents with paint it came to $850.00 I'm a bit concerned that body shop matches the paint. Since it is pearl I hope they get it correct. Thank God no one was hurt. The service advisor guaranteed that my Z is going to look like if the dings were never there.

I have no Idea what relevance the above highlighted section has, or what it means for that matter...

No $850 is not out of line. My friend put a tiny scratch on the rear bumber of my Acura with his golf bag and it was $550 to fix. Just make sure you look at it from different angles and in the sunlight before you take the car back. Good Luck!

The body shop manager says that it came out excellent and I will be very pleased. It looks like nothing ever happened to it.

since you have a better and bigger garage then why not buy your own GTR for it?
