Hello everyone,

Need some help with ideas on parts. This post should be fun for everyone reading this post. Hit a deer late one night this past week and have a pretty extensive amount of front end damage. See the attached pic. So she has to be fixed but I can fix her with aftermarket goodies and would like to use as many as possible.

Front left and right fender, turn signals, hood, bumper, grille, headight, radiator underbody and inner fender liners all damaged.

It's a 2006 G35x. Any ideas on aftermarket options to replace all damaged parts??? Post away. Thanks!

P.S. Driver and passenger totally fine. Deer not as fortunate.

Get the ionic emblemless grille, stock fenders, stock hood, new front bumper (any polyuruthane replacement from any of our vendors on this site) if you want and if you can find them projector (oem) headlights.

Will the iconic front lip fit an "X" bumper? I have a '06 G35x.

yes. only diffrence is there is a opening on the X models. they are indeed exactly the same so anything that fits on a RWD bumper will fit on a AWD bumper.

Hello,

We have the NISMO bumper for your sedan available =)

Can also ship OEM fenders (They're around $200s I'll need to double check on Monday) as well as hood.

We also have aftermarket hood in OEM or TS-Style for your G as well =)

If you ship us your driver side headlight we can pick up a new passenger for you and do Dual or Quad projector retrofit for you while the cars in the shop getting painted.

Hey Eric,

Insurance adjuster put the squash on my ideas of replacing damaged OEM parts with aftermarket parts. They said they won't cover them, even though in most cases, they are cheaper than OEM! Ridiculous.

Anyway, onto my next question. If I were to purchase the $95 High Quality HID fogs, yellow 3000k, are they easy to install into my '06 Sedan headlight and do I lose the high beam by doing so? Do you have any pics of them in a sedan? I'm not the best when it comes to wiring. Thanks.

^Never mention that to the insurance. Best bet is to talk to the body shop about doing that.
