Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk HR and DE bumpers are different mate, and as you have a HR like mine, I wouldn't want to make my zed look older lol. Most people try to do the opposite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMballistic Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Had a quick look on another guide online as I currently dont have another jack so may just get the local garage to get it off for me before they inspect it. Slightly worried that what I can see hanging down is part of the splash guard. Anyone know if this is something fairly inexpensive to replace? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Depends, ...from a Nissan dealership everything from a plastic trim clip to a door mirror glass is bl**dy expensive!! If you know what parts you need & don't mind good quality OEM used parts then try zmanalex or Emperor Tuning. zmanalex: http://www.350z-uk.com/user/9648-zmanalex/ Emperor Tuning: http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/232-emperor-tuning/ If you would prefer new items at a cheaper cost than at the dealerships then I believe Clark Motorsport are who you'd be best off trying first.

Most likely looking to get a good used bumper as it will be cheaper and more cost effective Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMballistic Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Used bumper will definitely be the best idea cost wise. Just "PM" the member trader/professional traders I linked by hovering your cursor arrow over their username and ask them for stock availability & prices. Failing them (which I doubt) have a good look through the member traders for anyone breaking a HR Zed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nixy Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 I was expecting far worse - you're lucky really, I knew of someone several years ago who hit a deer on a motorway and was killed after getting out of their car and being hit by someone else. Hope you get it sorted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope you get it sorted. Definitely Nixy, shocking how serious / devistating hitting one of these can be. Certainly thankful its just the car thats damaged and repairable.

jonty88 Posted May 3, 2016 Author Share Posted May 3, 2016 (edited) Just a quick update, ive found this on eBay, currently the only HR bumper I have found and ive checked a lot of cars that are currently being broken. Ive also PM'd ZMANALEX and Jon @ Emperor and currently non available. Please let me know your thoughts on its condition: http://www.ebay.co.u...=item464bc69c37 Im thinking a body shop can easily repair the small issues on it. The seller has specified it can be purchased with delivery included at £115. Edited May 3, 2016 by jonty88 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
