No worries Yeh so that was another little headache. For some reason Nissan decided to make the nismo headlamp washers smaller than the GT spec, so they dont fit in the nismo holes. Well at least the whole unit doesnt. I have decided short term, to just unclip the washer covers and double sided tape them to the bumper. So i dont actually have headlight washers currently. I have no idea how much the nismo headlight washer units are to buy...

Thanks for the reply But no, not interested in the rims im afraid.

Im after a Nismo rear bumper and Nismo sideskirts for my 370z. They need to be in pearl white (QAB paint code), as i dont want to have to worry about painting them and colour matching etc. I am interested in either the V1 or the V2 options. And can do a swap (plus cash your way) for the stock GT bumper/skirts if preferred.

I dont think ill be about on 15th. 22nd i should be good for. -
Thanks! Theoretically, they arent difficult at all to remove, however mine had a couple of little niggles. The main bit is easy and its just undoing the two main bolts in the side of the door. That lets the handles loose. Once the handles are half out, you have to reach in to the door to unplug the harness, which was not easy to get to! But i got there eventually after some scratched hands. The drivers door also has the mechanical key turn metal rod to pop off, which is easy to come off, but very fiddly to snap back on again. Again i got there eventually. Its easy enough to do, it just requires some patience for the more fiddly bits. This is the youtube video i used which helped a lot:

Ah nice. Yeh im keeping my eyes on ebay for a rear bumper. Either a V1 or V2, but preferably a V2. I dont want to mess around with painting it as the pearl white is apparently really difficult to colour match, and my OCD wont cope if its not right So looking for one already factory painted. Im impressed you have preempted that, as i did not There are not holes that i could see, so i unscrewed the sensors from the grill plastic on the old bumper, left them all wired up (as it causes all sorts of error lights that just wont go away if you unplug them apparently), and have just bolted/cable tied them where i can. I found the front crash bar struts the best place. I should have taken a pic, but didnt think before i put the bumper back on. I have got not error lights, and they are all sitting secure, so all good. That picture is just making me want to find a Nismo rear bumper as soon as possible! Looks great!

Thanks! I have been very lucky on ebay in the last little bit. See i really like the stock wheels, so dont think ill ever change them Ah thats fair, its all personal preference. You cant please everyone Thanks. The Maxton sideskirts were next on my list, until i ran into the spoiler, so they are now on hold until i get some more money spare

Ok so i have an unexpected big update... I made the mistake of looking on ebay and just couldnt say no to this gem. I found a genuine Nissan Nismo rear spoiler shipped from Japan (still in its box) already factory painted in my QAB colour code. The japanese (and i believe US) model V1 Nismos dont have the black accents all around the skirts and boot spoiler like the UK models do. Which works better with my car anyway. My current spoiler is not quite the same colour as the body, so i suspected it was replaced/added at some point, however i was not expecting it to have been fitted with this sealant stuff all over the boot which was an incredible pain to get the spoiler off and then clean the ridiculous mess it left. However eventually i got there! Im so happy with it and being a genuine part the colour and fitment is spot on! Here are some before and afters:

-
Im looking at getting these Maxton sideskirts. One question, how do they attach? Do they fit onto the stock under skirt bolts? Do they come pre drilled?
