matth76 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 My front side orange reflectors (the two on the front of the car - one underneath each headlight) are a bit scratched and I want to replace them. Is this pretty easy to do or is it a bumper off job or can you do it by jacking up the car and reaching from behind the bumper? Also how much are they each? Thanks for any info.

M13KYF Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 check the guides section, there is a how to in there. You need to loosen the inner wheel arch and loose you knuckles or take the front bumper off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matth76 Posted February 15, 2009 Author Share Posted February 15, 2009 Thanks guys. How many minutes/hours approx does it take to take the bumper off and replace? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig782 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 I replaced one side without taking off bumper and i have washers and took about an hour i think. Would be quicker doing the other side as know what i was doing. I posted up a guide of how to without taking off the bumper, not that its that difficult of a job. Might be quicker to take the bumper off if doing both but not sure never done it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig782 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=19010 Not a hard job just that washer bottle is right in the way till you release it off the bracket Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marzman Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 i think it would be quicker taking the bumper off... I've had mine off a few times now so could finish the job in about an hour - but the first time it took me about 5 hours to replace the reflectors - and that was without taking the bumper off. It was snowing though, and i couldnt feel my fingers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
