Default Side Skirt Starting to Fall Off

The seal on the passanger sideskirt is starting to come off at the rear.

There is no longer a flush seal. Is this happening to anyone else?

Any suggestions on how to reseal it? I was thinking about a very very very thin coat of gorilla glue just below the seal to keep it adheased.


Thanks

the seals are sold separately from the skirt if it needs to be replaced

If you want to replace it, here you go: http://www.courtesyparts.com/76898w-...-p-615309.html

It would probably be easier just getting a new one at the dealership

^Sweet thx.

I'm not sure if this is specific to the nismo side skirts or the 350z in general, but that is a relief. I was thinking they would have to replace the whole sideskirt or something stupid like that.

It would be awesome if they replaced it under warrenty, but I took my car in about 6 months ago because a little bit of the front bumper started to dislodge after a high speed run at an airstrip, and they said Nissan does not cover any body damage.

My guess is that a piece of hard snow/ice on the road loosened it. My poor baby has been taking a beating lately...

Thank goodness for the 3M tape
