used side skirts?

I was wondering if anyone knew where i can buy used side skirts from a i35?
there are no i35's in junk yards around where i live and paradox is way to much for me.

Off the top of my head I don't know any specifics, but I can tell you there are a all kinds of online junkyards that will search for the part you're looking for and give you a quote on shipping it to you. Just do a google search for auto parts or junk yards.

Im not sure how much the paradox skirts are, but you can get the factory part, which comes painted, at everythingnissan.com for under $400.

So if you can't find any used, maybe this is an option.

At Infinitipartsusa you can get them $362 per side, but they're already painted.

And I'm with NewLoveI30, I remember when you could order the factory skirts (as a pair), pre-painted, new, for $400ish.

Keep looking?

Something else I might add:

I always thought that if I didn't have side skirts that I'd try to make the Maxima Stillen side skirts fit. However, since I already have sides I never looked too actively into it.

But, for those of you without, I would call a Maxima friendly vendor (i.e. SCO/SWA), tell them what you have, tell them your intentions, and ask if they'd be willing to sell you a pair, but then allow you to return them if you get them, hold them up to the car, and clearly see that they won't work.

And no, to my knowledge no one here has done this yet. So, no, I can't say for sure whether it'd work. But, nothing ever got done on these cars without someone first trying a part or two out and seeing if it worked. I can think of more than a few examples of this myself...

EDIT: Stillen rockers are about $160/side (unpainted) on SCO's website. I think if you call them up and tell them you're an .Org member you'll even get a discount. http://www.sportcompactonly.com/prod...&c=97&l=2&pg=3

Yes, I knew I'd seen 'em somewhere. That's a great price (IMO).

I know, Even with the Stillen skirts after painting them you'd prolly end up spending about the same, and there is no guarantee that they will even fit. I think the OE skirts look better anyway. Understated and classy.

hey will these side skirts also work a for a I30 2001? i noticed http://www.trademotion.com/partlocat...catalogid=3323 shows that its for a 2002-2004. Wondering if it will fit?

also i saw some pictures of an I30 or I35 in another post within this forum board about a russian maxima forum website that just had one of the best looking I30's i've ever seen. supper clean, lowered with the sideskirts: front, rear, and sides. has anyone seen this ? i would like to know if its the same stuff that the real cefiros in japan look like
