Hey

Im stripping my car back atm to get it painted in a few months time. I just pulled the door seals off, where the window seals onto when the door is shut with the window up, and also the seal around the door the seals in the door jam and goes up around as high as the mirror.

Also my windscreen and rear window and rear quatar glass seals are all in not the best nick. Just wondering what you guys have done when painting your cars. I do not want to remove the rear 1/4 windows, but is it mandatory to get the rear quater seals off? Sorry I dont have any pics atm but ill get some up.

I got a quote from nissan on the seals around the windows and they want around $550 one side and $720 the other side. I found them on import monster last week for $300 plus fees, commision and freight, so around $550 delivered... still VERY EXY.

Any cheap ways out or anything that might help?

I cant help but I can rule out most places here in Mackay. Someone with a maroon 32 searched for the same seals at several places and found nothing... except at nissan for around the prices you said

I can double check but pretty sure ringing around Brisbane or somewhere might be a better option... Have you tried Nizwreck or something for some decent second hand ones? They seem to be a pretty rare part... if only there was somehting like rarespares that catered to import nissans etc

Yeah slack for second hand ones, I think they're all just as bad as eatchother because just having the doors shut and the windows pushing in seals flattens it out over the years... New seals would make it look nice with fresh paint

yeh ive seen them a bit wrecked around the mirror and water leaks in behind them and rusts away the little part that supports the mirror, I checked mine on the 33 when i had the side mirror off once and it looks good so maybe its only a problem with the 32's?

Id suggest looking down south, hopefully someone on here has found some cheap cause they are a fair rip off from nissan
