Hit in a parking lot! PICS








Some dumbass Bitch backed into me at a shell parking lot... My question is, Id like to now upgrade my taillights to the newer model with the circle shaped LED's instead of the ones i have now, will they fit?

Also Should i just buy a full nismo kit with the money and have it painted to fit my sedan? Do they make a nismo kit for a sedan?

OK to your first question, yes they are available, cheapest and easiest place is here and also the reverse light conversion is available here

As for the nismo kit, yes it is available for the sedan, but I believe the rear is just a skirt kit so it isn't a full bumper.
here is the rear by itself, and here is the 3 piece kit (without the spoiler)

Ok... First of all thats not the cheapest place for taillights, dont jump to a conclusion so fast. If you check eBay, any time of the day you'll find a pair of brand new in box 05/06 taillights being sold by stores. Their prices are $150 per taillight, check here...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TAIL-...QQcmdZViewItem

and here http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TAIL-...QQcmdZViewItem

$320 vs $480? lol thats a no brainer.

Then you can get yourself the reverse lamps if you come across them on ebay for a very cheap price, or worse comes to worst you get the ones from everythingg35.com

If you're interested in a full Nismo Kit, I have one for sale, check it out here... $1150(or $1450 painted to your color).

yeah, he's right. Sorry I just don't really use eBay much, and never saw that nismo kit I'm interested too

thanks for the replies guys... i love the nismo kit, but id only get it if it came with the bumper which sucks, i love the front though, but im afraid itd not look right from the side with just the front bumper on it. Im going to need a new rear bumper, but if its around 2k in damages, ill just buy that nismo kit and tails, have em painted to match and call it a day . . . Im just frustrated this **** happened because now i gotta roll my g lookin all f'd up until the check comes in. Does anyone know where i can find a stock 03 rear sedan bumper?

If you arent going with the NISMO kit, might as well get the check and then find a shop that will paint all of your sills (so they won't be black anymore). I'm getting mine done on tuesday.

Have the shop order an 05-06 rear bumper which is fully painted, and throw it on with the 05-06 taillights - just make sure you get the lil trunk button that comes with it. Then paint your side sills, get 05-06 ones, or get nismo ones plus a nismo bumper

find a bodyshop that you know and let them know you want to get aftermarket parts. If you pick one of the bodyshops on the insurance companies list of recommended shops they will make you use stock parts.

I feel your pain. Same thing happened to me a few months back. Someone needs to go back to day 1 of Driver's Ed. How to park a car. Like the silver paint transfer to the left rear of my car?
