Morning (Happy Holiday's)..

So my Z has been sitting at a body shop now for two weeks, was suppose to be a 4 day deal... Was out on Thanksgiving and acidentally ended up spinning the tires going around a corner, swerved to miss a cat and ended up "slowly" almost had it controlled, backing into those wires that help support power poles.

So anyway, needed new hatch, rear bumper and paint according to the claims adjuster. So while it was in the shop I also had the front bumper , hood, and fenders resprayed (looks brand frickin new )

I am having (as the body shop must be) a hard time getting a hold of the "gasket" that the rear hatch glass sits in before it can be mounted in the body... The body shop guy has been telling me for a week he was suppose to have it the next day, the next day, the next day.. BLAH !!! Think he's feeding me sh*t, anyone know which "gasket" it is? I'm looking at schematics and I'm not to familiar with which one specifically holds the glass... Would like to get it overnighted if possible (Today) from a vendor or dealer.. Need to get my car in the garage before the weather really turns to sh8t... Getting 12"-16" of snow tonight already.. which means salt on the roads"till Mar now....

Any and all help gretly appreciated from any of you vendor folks, Merry Christmas, Happy New Year !! Be safe !!

So is it 90801 ? That's what I'm unsure of... I've never pulled the glass out of the hatch.. I need the one that the glass mounts in before getting mounted? Guess when they pulled out this gasket or molding using a heat gun, they over stretched it so it couldn't be reused.... Thanks for taking your time to look that up, those were the schematics I was looking at before I posted

Yes it is 90801 but that is Courtesy Part's #. If you're ordering from a dealer it's 90352-CD000. I just bought one a couple weeks ago for the glass transfer to my CF hatch.

FYI, they call it a "molding," not a gasket or weather stripping. I confused them when I said weather stripping and they tried to sell me 90830-CD000 which attaches to the body, not the hatch. Oh, and expect to spend $100+.

A body shop should not have a problem ordering this piece unless they are trying to get a cheaper version from a different manufacturer. hope you get your car back soon for storage

Yep, she's back in the garage already and covered. She's looking hot with the new paint and chrome black pearl emblems from the Zstore!! To bad I won't be able to drive her for another 3 months... Had to drive her home last night on our wonderfully salted roads, rinsed her off best I could and put her to bed

Yep, and thanks... I could have picked up another decent used car for the coin I just dropped on her. But there's nothing I enjoy more than hitting the road behind the wheel of my Z.. Well, there are a couple things I enjoy more, but that's a different story..lol..
