My Zeds looking great, the only thing that lets it down is the moldings and also one of the strips on the door which is faded.

 

They are not bad, but I want them mint like everything else.

 

I see they are available from CZP and also the Z Centre, although expensive.

 

Has anyone recently sourced them fron anywhere else, or even had them refurbished at all?

 

Cheers.

They are expensive, some will say well worth it but i've spent many many hours on mine taking off the 'patching up/half a job' paint jobs from over the years and i expect them to turn out very well once the satin black is applied professionally.

 

I don't like throwing away stuff that with a bit of effort can be turned around.

 

I can see why people do buy new though, getting flexible new rubber is a big plus on the window moldings but mine are not bad at all - if i'm not happy in any way, option 2 of buying new is the route i'll have to take but i think this atm is doubtful.

You maybe able to source them from your local Nissan dealer, they might be good to deal with, i personally got mine from CZP but I've built up a good relationship with my local dealer's parts dept., this enables me to order in parts and pay them off over a reasonable amount of time, thus making the purchase more affordable:thumbup:

I source the Part No's and then give them to my local parts dept., that way we both are sure the correct part comes in, usually a couple of weeks to a month but as I've said, I can spread the cost over a couple of months:thumbup1:

Might give them a try.

 

I used to go in there when it was a joint Renault/Nissan dealer years ago as I've had lots of older Turbo Renaults.
