does 04-05 lower sections fit on the 03-04 to replace plastics?

 

Yes they should be interchangeble. I think the front end is whats the most different between the exterior of the two cars.

 

no they will not. next time do a search first

 

none of the lower parts from 05 - 06 will not fit an 03-04 model.

 

Yes I have searched, have either of you actually tried?

How was Chico able to put on the Stillen sides on his car? He's got an '05.




And for the rear of the car, we all know the lights match up. The rest of the lines in the rear match up also. The only difference is the rear bumper of the '05-'06 have an integrated lip.

 

have i tried? no i havent. but that's because i've spoken to numerous infiniti techs and part managers about trying this. as for chico, i dunno but those are stillen parts arent they (stillen sides no less)?

the short of this is, no the parts are not interchangeable because there are differences in the headlights and grill. the sides and rear *might* fit if they have the same mounting points. you of course are more than welcome to try, and if they don't work you can spend more money to make them fit.

 

I would have thought that the side sills would work, after all they didn't change the distance between the wheel wells, nor did they change the style of the doors, right???

 

Are you some kind or rude *****? You have not searched! Yet when someone asks a question with unavailable information you tell them to search, if the information was easily available then he would not need to ask, if he did ask and you knew the answer and you said for him to search, you are truly an idiot.

 

TKMAN00-

I don't know why you're so argumentative about this. I personally haven't tried either, only because I don't have the funds to buy anything car related right now, so its all speculation for me as well. I guess the only person with personal experience is Chico.

But logically why wouldn't it? Yes his is aftermarket, but its not like Stillen has multiple mounting points to accomodate for the different years. And the 05's don't have multiple mounting points for the sides either. So.....if they're both the same...... why would it not fit? There's the pic right there proving to you it works.

I'm not calling those parts managers liars, but if they haven't tried it then the easiest answer for them to give you is "no".

I agree with you in regards to the hood, grill, headlights, front bumper obviously those are different.

 

I think he was referring me to search, since he didn't agree with my answer.

But I totally agree with you! hah

 

Most of the parts managers DONT KNOW what they are doing. They just look up part numbers and give you a price.

The major differences on the front end: Hood, Grill, Bumper. Headlights and fenders are DESIGNED different but overall have the same exact dimensions. How do I know? I have BOTH 03 and 05 Parts sitting in my garage.

It looks like that sides are similar but I cannot confirm that.

 

bert039 - i'm being argumentative because this topic seems (to me at least) come up weekly. like i said, the sides and the rear *might* fit. but when the costs btw the two are similar and the 05+ parts come unpainted i fail to see the effectiveness of attempting such a swap. i'm not trying to be an *** about this, but like i said it's been covered numerous times.

 

wat kit is that on thats car in the pic ???

 

Wut a jerk! But yah Rookie SEARCH is your FRIEND!!!!!

 

yeah that's me tkman00 the jerk :P
