sorry you got hit, but the upside looks very nice. Good Luck.Thank goodness they didnt, but if they had hit your exhaust too you would have been set!

SNAP! Was thinking the same thing .. bumpers coming from a local auction site, and works out cheaper than the panel beater can supply it for too

You got it backwards my friend You can not buy 1 single Maxima performance part off the shelf or virtually anywhere in NZ. Do get some wrecked cars but nothing like the goodies you guys get... VQ30DE engines for $600-1000 in the US, would cost $3000 here and there are literally 30 or less manuals in the whole country.

Buying $US20 strut brace off ebay, shipping is about $US50 odd.. more than the thing is worth.. but you just can't buy them here

If you wanted something I can get let me know.. heres a local site that has some bits for taster..
