Its labeled 7-22 on the back and is about 1 inch by 1 inch. It appears to be very hard rubber, here are some pics, sorry for the camra suckage. To give you an idea i worked only around the airbox today so i fairly sure this part is from around the airbox area of the engine compartment or somewhere near that.

this rubber thing almost looks like it screws on to somthing it has a little spiral.

To easy....... Its a hood spacer from your radiator support....

are you 100% sure?

should be one on each side of core support. when they get old & hard they will sometime break off easily. get 2 new from dealer ( 'cause the other will probably break soon), screw 'em in, adjust as needed and that's it.

Ok well ill probably be going to a $tealership soon for a new key, is this spacer a fix that should be tended to within a few days? is it unsafe? or is it cool if i drive around with one missing for no more than 2 weeks. Yeah im a maxima beginer.

nitromax

no big deal, it'll keep. may notice the hood shaking a little. they're cheap/inexpensive probably less than $10 for the pair.

Damn your right on the money, i did notice that while back and was unsure what that was all about, thanks for your help

damn, he beat me to it. yea, the threads gave it away. i need to adjust mine tomorrow. i noticed my hood sitting a bit lower than the fender lines.

Damn. I was going to say its his lower motor mount and that he should only drive in reverse until its replaced!

Uh i dont think this is a hood spacer for my radiator support, looking today i belive i have both them on

On the right is the hood spacer (right?) then on the left is what i found on the ground underneath the car. Its bigger than the spacers and i have 2 spacers on currently so what could this be?

nitromax

if it's not yours, then it's somebody else's. but the pic was of a hood adjuster/stop/bumper...
