new rim, door and rear panel. If you part out let me know, I have a 97 same color, black leather, LSD as well. so does that make me the only 97 with that? he he

Sorry about the accident though, but a used g35 shouldnt' be too much on ebay.

The damage is purely cosmetic. I am still driving the car it runs fantastic but it is Time for a new car. My max has served me well. I have started looking for a new car and right now I am just getting rid of my spare parts .Once I find my new car I will part out the maxima but there is no rush.

Glad your ok, and its understandable the move your taking. you've been with the car so long. Rear quarter panel work is not cheap plus paint will be involved. If his insurance wont payfor it, then it definately might be time to move on.

Glad your okay, and best wishes to you. I'm sure you have just as much if not more fun with the next car.

I was merging on to the Highway. The exit ramp dumps onto the break down lane. There was a cop chasing a car he was trying to pull over. I moved over a bit so that he would be able to get by and in doing so my wheel cliped the wheel of the truck. then I spun in front of the truck with its bumper hitting my door and rear quater.

Just letting you know (unless of course you got your car repainted), his paint is not the same as Deep Evergreen, DP0 like we have.

Zack - real sorry to hear about the accident. Any plans for a new car yet? I assume you'll be moving on from Maximas since you're dumping your spare parts off already.

driving it till it's dead could take quite a long time. He's looking for a new car before this happened.

For all the people that have PMed me for parts. I will create a post once I find my new car. I cannot part out my car while I am driving it. At this time I am only selling the spare parts I was keeping. Like the transmission+5 speed conversion stuff and trim stuff.

Here is the link to the tranny for all who have asked.
