eye for an eye.... sorry g/f.... lesson learned.

How is the color match on the replacement fuel doors? I swear my original is off color a bit, really bugs me.

Our fuel doors are the cheapest I've ever seen on any car. What was Nissan thinking?

I love how every time something is broken or rims are curbed..... everyone blames it on their 'gf'.

Nissan sure makes a mint off us when we need parts. Expensive!

That was three extra steps for you than for her ... she was just pissed. I assume you don't open her car door for her?

That looks way off. Did they order the wrong color? AG perhaps?

That's the original fuel door, pics were taken 1st or 2nd day I owned the car. I'm going to complain (loudly) at the 1st service visit and see what they will do.

Does your GF know you are dumping this on her? I mean really just be a man and fess up. You got a little ahead of yourself and forgot to remove the nozzle before you drove away. There don't you feel better now? But really it didn't tweak the quarter panel or anything? If not if you buy the part double check to see if it comes pre painted. Alot of body parts have to be squirted at a trust worthy paint shop.
