Need your help guys
The thing is I am rebuilding a 05 Z MT Base Coupe, I am in Europe so does the Z, and I need many parts to complete the rebuild (maybe some of you have seen my WTB thread at the marketplace). The first thing - I can spend about 5-6k on those parts (including shippment within the US), and I am looking for:
-hood
-both bumper covers + right sideskirt
-right fender
-windshield
-cowl
-radiator support
-front rebar (complete with all the brackets, foam)
-radiator
-fans
-right door mirror
-passenger's power window steering plastic cover
-hvac parts: evaporator, blower, tubes, heater
-dashboard, center console with underdash steel tube
-complete passenger's suspension
-passenger's fender liner protector
-srs parts: passenger's airbag, seatbelts, srs module
-handbrake lever
-horn
-front crossmember
-engine parts: power steering pump, alternator, throttle body, camshaft position sensor, some piping and tubes
Could any of you tell me if you know a good auto recycler who could get me those parts for the money I have?The other option I am considering is to spend bit more money and buy a salvage Z and get it here and part it out (but it takes much more time to get that Z here and part it out)? What would be a better solution for me? I'll be glad if anyone of you could help me

You have taken on one hell of a project. Finding and importing big items like a hood is going to be expensive. Do you have any idea what it costs to ship a hood from the United States to Poland? Have you checked in the regional forum? This project may not be economically feasible.
Buy a serviceable 350Z.

That's not an issue here, I have find myself a cheap way to send all of those parts to Poland, also the large ones like hood 
That's why I am only concern about buying them and shipping within the US.
By the way, large sea cargo container costs like 2300$ shipped to Poland - I can pack there like 4 cars or 29 tons of cargo. I know that UPS, Fedex, etc has really high fees for this kind of cargo, but I consider their services as a rip off, I'll get those part send by air for less then 25% of their fees.

Maybe you can do a search for US auto junk yards online.
