My 300zx was involved in an accident a few weeks ago (i was not at fault, i was hit by an unlicensed 15 year old girl who did not know how to yield to traffic). The front bumper needs to be replaced as well as the headlights. One is shattered and the other is cracked.

I have been looking around but have no found anywhere that sells headilghts for the 300zx except for eBay. I was thinking about getting some halo/angel eyes headlights but I am thinking they look a bit ricer for me. But I'm open to any suggestions.

I've also been looking around for a front bumper replacement. I will most likely not go OEM as that would be too costly so I've been browsing the bodykit websites. Since my body is completely stock, would some aftermarket front bumpers not fit correctly or look silly? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Check TwinTurbo.NET classifieds as there are frequently part-outs on that site.

Regarding angel eyes, nobody makes headlights with angel eyes pre-installed - you'd have to buy the rings and install them yourselves.

And aftermarket fascias are heavy and useless (and usually ruin the Z32's perfect body lines). Get OEM with a lip or get 1999 JDM. You can find all of this on the TwinTurbo.NET classifieds.

Thanks for the tip, too bad there's no one selling headlights or front bumpers atm T.T

I've been checking out this website for a front bumper. Would you guys recommend this site or any of the bumpers here?

As for the front headlights, the only luck I've been having is on eBay.

I can tell just by the url of the website that it's not going to be something that any respectable Z32 owner will recommend. Going to the site now...


LMMFAO Just as I expected... cheap knock-offs of name brand products. Furthermore, they're all hideous fascias. I guess if you're gonna f*ck up the good looks of your car, it's best to not spend extra money on quality parts that at least fit well.

Seriously, you're not going to get body kit support in this community... we actually like how the car looks with only subtle modifications.

And keep looking on tt.net classifieds... stuff will pop up. It never takes long.

P.S. We have a motto: "Buy cheap, buy twice." And if you cheap out on body components, they will fit like garbage.

Yeah, I don't like any of the bumpers on that website. I agree, I like the way the car looks stock much better but I can't find a stock bumper that doesn't break the bank. However, I have seen a few aftermarket bumpers that do not look half bad. I'm just having a hard time locating one for sale.


This one looks pretty close to stock though

That one is only a front lip (that's why it's so inexpensive). You'd need a stock fascia, and what you'd be buying there is only the lower portion that covers the bottom of the stock fascia. This is a much better route to go, but I'm partial to the Stillen lips on the market.

And quit using google to find no-name companies for your body components. Like I said, when you buy cheap body parts, they fit like crap. Brand names like Stillen, GReddy, Wings West, Kaminari, etc are the ones to look at. Go to TwinTurbo.NET and look at the list of sponsors - most of them can get you quality body components.

Do you guys know where I can pick up a 99 Z32 front fascia?
