Rubber thingy for sticky out bit on trunk lid.

Anybody have a part number based on my excellent description?

Here's a photo. I'm missing one, and now of course the paint is scratched because of its absence.

here's a thread on this that shows the same p/n-
http://www.nsxprime.com/forum/showthread.php/164485-Rubber-trunk-stoppers-updated-with-photos!

the person also notes that he found one in the open space down below where it had fallen off, so you might want to shine a light down there before you order one.

If you are at NSXPO I have some extra ones I bought since I replaced one of mine..........find me, I'll have them

That's one of the two most frequently missing parts on the NSX. (The other is the rubber caps on the ends of the t-shaped bracket to which the spare tire bolts.)

^This… One of the reasons why I love this forum so much.. (Also made me run to the garage to check and see if I had them too..) Yup, they're there. Learned yet something else new about the car today.. Thanks Prime!

If you use your trunk a lot they always shimmy loose so check often..or glue them.

He's right so I just use some fuel hose that I cut to width with a razor. It fits tighter so it doesn't come loose and fall off. Once on it looks and works the same as the correct part. You have to cut it a tad wider because when you stretch it on it gets a little narrower.

Thanks for all the tips guys (and gal)!

You also might want to look at the bottom of the gap where the hinge closes, as they usually fall out and land in there.........use a straw to pick it out since your hand won't fit down there - fish and you might find.

So I checked the trunkal abyss and sure enough, the stopper was there! Retrieved it with a set of needle-nose pliers, cleaned it up well, and went to go get some glue or tape or something to keep it from wandering off again. Within minutes, or perhaps seconds, the stopper had disappeared. It is somewhere in my house, of that I am sure, but other than that it is MIA.

I must be losing my mind.

Your NSX is testing you to see how much you really care about it [emoji1]
