The full front bumper is different... the side markers are different as well and they sit at a more 90 degree angle from the road...
I do NOT want to drill into my bumper. I guess I'll have to "tie wrap" until mr Zee (hopefully) makes an updated product.

Isn't he a member here?

I dont see a place for the Zee-Bracket type to mount on the 06... He might beable to figure something out...

the Stillen one that uses the tow hook is an option though..

Jason, I had no idea Stillen made something like the Zee Bracket. I'm on the PerformanceNissanParts.com website and can't seem to find it. I'm looking at: http://performancenissanparts.com/ca...th=275_276_277

Oh wise Jason, could you teach me the ways of the Stillen?

its basicly a bolt that goes into the tow hook hole... and has a bracket attached to that...

link was posted above...

thanks CER2225...

BUT! Stillen has some issues with it... well its not really stillen... it seems that 350Z's have a whole bunch of different size tow hook holes and its not bulid date specific...

jason -
i was at Falore Nissan today checking out the 06's. cool interior mods man - i love the leather on the doors and the center console re-arangment. the Z I checked had the NAV and it looks different - no lid anymore. i really like it.

anyways, the salesman told me that the new headlights actually turn in the dirction your wheels are turning, is that true? i guess that would explain the high price tag! you have a great deal on the LED tailights though - I am going to order them.

did you get any pricing/avail info on the new 18"/19" Track wheels?
thanks for all your help

I do not think that these headlights turn with the direction of the car... he has the 350Z confused with the new INFINITI M series...

The headlights are actually the same List price as the 2003-2005 headlamps...

no pricing on the 18/19's yet...

How much will the 06 Rays cost? I cancelled my order for the 35th when I found out that the coupse had these changes. May end up getting the ZR Grand touring and add the Rays.

Can the Nismo sways and suspension kit work with the Rays?

Yes NISMO Sways / Suspension will work with any wheels and and tires that come on the 350z stock...

I just went upto Bel Air Nissan and saw two 06's. Blue/frost touring coupe and Silverstone/ charcoal touring roadster. Man I like the changes. Neither had Nav, but the interior is cleaned up and nice. Tailights are killer, the front end is nice with the new headlights and grille. I forgot to check on the ZR if it had the sunglass holder like the coupe has. (brochure says that the roadster has it)
