I crashed my z 5 months ago and i'm still waiting for the bodyshop to repair it. The damage was minor too but all the parts are coming from Japan and take forever because they aren't in stock
cool fucking story have you considered not crashing?
https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/o1213051021use buyee and they'll forward it (probably $150-200 in shipping). Have your bodyshop buy this, bill the insurance full-price, then give you the difference. What are you, 12?
>>28778566Don't be worry anon, you're a happy man, some people here ride a bus.
>>28778582damn i probably should have done that. Too late now, thought it also needed more parts than that like the crash bar behind the bumber. Just waiting on a sensor bracket now.Most expensive parts were the hood popper explosive charges, like 700usd each
>>28778566Be better driver next time chud. This aint reddit nobody cares about your blog
>>28778587>Most expensive parts were the hood popper explosive charges, like 700usd eachwhy would you pay for those?
>>28778600they are one time use and im pretty sure you would keep getting error messages without replacing them. You can replace them with defeat devices maybe but those are still somewhat expensive and youd get raped in court if you hit a pedestrian without them
what did u hit?weird ass damage
>>28778604imagine living in cuckfornia, lmao
>>28778566the one nu z on the road and its stuck at the bodyshop

>>28778587>Most expensive parts were the hood popper explosive charges, like 700usd eachI thought you were retarded and making things up but holy fuck what is this world coming to where these are neccessary. they only even lift the hood like 3 incheshttps://www.nissan-global.com/EN/INNOVATION/TECHNOLOGY/ARCHIVE/PUEHFPP/

Wait until low rider culture picks up the Z. Then parts will become more available.
>>28778582Bumper shipping from Japan is $1000 shipping at minimum if going on a plane (I've done this)
>>28780489Mayng fuck shipping body parts...NOBODY is careful enough to pack them properly and avoid damage. I bought 2 pristine same-color brand new take-off fenders and both sellers damaged them in shipping by not packing properly. No matter how much I begged them to pack it properly.They would have been a perfect OEM color match and everything, but no, the sellers were too lazy or wanted to avoid $5 in packing materials so got an eBay dispute instead because they arrived damaged.So I had to buy some pre-painted bullshit that doesn't quite color match.FUCK THIS PLANET
>>28780489>>28780602OP still hasn’t told us how he wrecked (tldr; lack of skill).
>>28778566Post tatas
>>28780489>>28780602jesse streeter? I've used him a few times to buy stuff but only small shit. biggest thing I bought was a steel clutch line that went along my car's firewall, so it was kind of awkward to package but he still managed to pack it well
>>28781033No, one was from some methed up hillbilly out East, and the other was from Lithuania of all places. For a brand new 2025 Mustang. Some slav criminal gang must be stripping those cars over there
