No roof flex here... what the hell could cause that? Does it happen on cars with modified suspensions?

I don't think plastic would deform like that from flexing.... I'll have to check mine when I get home tho....

Got it on the rear bumper of mine, near the license plate about 2 o'clock. Defect in the mold, nothing you can do. Almost better not to look for it; I only notice mine if the light hits it just right.

Mine has it and my suspension is stock. In fact, with the exception of the screw in my gas tank, my car is pretty much stock.

I have this too. Just looked this morning. I've got a 2004.5 with 10k miles. Never noticed it even while detailing until I read this.

My 03 doesn't have it (actually an 02). 17,144 miles.

It's probably something to do with the mold or adhesion process.

Anyone check to see if it's color dependent or does it happen an all color Z's?

I have it too. What should I do? Is there a solution? Nissan sucks IMO. I'm dissapointed with this whole car.

Seriously. Guys it's a piece of plastic... it won't bend like metal would. If it's there now, it's probably always been there.
