Old Lady hit and run

I was in Fred Meyer with the GF and some old lady took out my door and front end. Ruined my retrofit headlight. Insurance paid for everything tho, thank god for full coverage. Just got my OEM reconditioned Nismo sedan bumper!







Got hooked up with a set of poem clear corners from a member on here





I'll update when everything gets put on and painted at the shop. Should be looking a lot better soon

Thumbs down Here's what you do

I would go back to the area and see if their are any cameras. Although no one was injured (thank God), hit and run is a serious offense.

So the nismo bumper isn't fitting perfectly. It seems to be hitting on something and that is keeping it from fitting on. Its somewhere in the lower area. The shop is also having this issue with fitment. I told them to just paint it and get it on as good as they can and I would figure it out. Anyone else done the swap from OEM bumper to OEM nismo bumper and had any issues? Is there a support I need to remove or something simple like that? I hope it isn't the whole metal bumper reinforcement that needs to be changed out. Any help would be appreciated.

There are some metal pieces that need to be removed for the bumper to fit. This thread will help: https://g35driver.com/forums/body-in...r-install.html

BTW where did you get your bumper? I just got a reconditioned one and it didn't come with the fins / inserts. Hoping I can get a set.

I got it from RockAuto.com and it came with the fins. It was also reconditioned. I guess I got lucky

After 3 hours of searching for the part number for the nismo rear lip, I cannot find it. Anyone have the part number?
