MidnightRacer Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 so I was routing through a 350 at a breakers today and came across this material mesh cover for the rear section of the boot. (much like a tonneau cover but for the top) Just wondered if these are common? My import didnt have one but its definately OE looking at the fixings. Needless to say its now fitted to my car. Quote
Lexx Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 I vaguely remember this being on the options list when I ordered my car. Quote
rtbiscuit Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 i believe its standard fit on all UK GT cars Quote
Beavis Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 Did not know it was an option , thought it was standard. Its on my GT4 Quote
buster Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 my gt spec zed came with one fitted.....i remember seeing one for sale recently.quite an expensive o/e opition if i read it correctly. nice find m8.hope you didnt pay to much for it. Quote
Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 Good find, hope it was less than the £300 Nissan would quote you Quote
Lexx Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 *racks memory of my Zed* *gives up and looks at pics* Oh yeah, mine had one too Quote
Neilp Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 mines has one too...if you want one it costs a fortune from nissan hope you got it cheap Quote
spursmaddave Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 They are standard on UK but option on Jap Imports and VERY expensive from Nissan Quote
gort Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 mines has one too...if you want one it costs a fortune from nissan hope you got it cheap Everything costs a fortune from Nissan. BTW.. mine came with one too Quote
MidnightRacer Posted August 1, 2011 Author Posted August 1, 2011 Thanks for the replies! I got it along with loads of other things so I'm not too sure on the cost but I'd guess about £15 including the boot trim to attach it. nice little addition to the JDM! Quote
slimjim Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 £15... something tells me that was a STEAL! Where is the carcass you are stripping? Quote
MidnightRacer Posted August 1, 2011 Author Posted August 1, 2011 It was a breakers in doncaster, car. Was in a pretty sorry state to be fair. Quote
jim Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 You were very lucky. I bought one from a member on here, then discovered that my JDM did not have any fitments to attach it to, so I had to return it. Quote
MidnightRacer Posted August 1, 2011 Author Posted August 1, 2011 Yeah I thought it a good idea to get the fixings too although it wouldn't have been impossible to drill a few holes in the stock one to make it fit. Quote
BACON Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 I was under the impressions these were standard on all UK 350's built after 2004 but may be wrong. As mentioned I know these are ludicrously expensive and certanly three figures so at £15 that is a bargain.....i'll take 3 please Quote
jim Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 Yeah I thought it a good idea to get the fixings too although it wouldn't have been impossible to drill a few holes in the stock one to make it fit. I wasn't brave enough at the time to get the drill out! Quote
MidnightRacer Posted August 1, 2011 Author Posted August 1, 2011 Yeah I thought it a good idea to get the fixings too although it wouldn't have been impossible to drill a few holes in the stock one to make it fit. I wasn't brave enough at the time to get the drill out! yeah fair point... although I now have a spare jdm one if you ever decide to have a go and fook it up! Quote
chrisgunton Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 I remember reading these were a £300 option - which sounds crazy so it could be right!! Quote
bronzee Posted August 2, 2011 Posted August 2, 2011 Interesting, we weren't even offered these as an option over here. Quote
