Default 2006 Nissan Spec Clear Side Markers

well in an amazing turn of events USPS showed up with my package from japan in only 4 days with a sunday delivery(color me shocked)

and wow, only thing that suprised me even more is how incredably different these are from the 03-05.

right now LED modification is questionable. I have an idea that would be pretty awesome looking if it will fit.

These are NISSAN reflectors. not 3rd party aftermarket parts. as you can see they are DOT inspected(though to my knowledge, not street legal). but atleast they wont ever discolor or anything.

anyway just wanted to give you guys an idea of whats going on with them.

Ill update you when I hammer out some prices. my FTP is acting crazy so you have to click these thumbnails to get to the big photos.

no, 03-05 used a different sidemarker. readily available from performance or courtesy nissan or any number of other aftermarket dealers. or if your looking for an LED reflector for a 05 check out www.rasecreations.com

these are a new part for the 06 Z. nissan changed the bumper and reflector design for some reason. no idea why, they are very similair in shape but extremely different in how their mounted and the way the reflector is set up inside.

I finally got to see a 06 at nightnext to me. the led's in the headlight housing are pretty damn nice and noticable also. Are you planning to stick with the 3 dot pattern from elsewhere in the car or are you going otherwise?

due to differences in the reflector design these should have a very unique appearance.

the 3 dot design doesnt really lend itself to the new reflector.

I wanted to make a white replacement to the amber LEDs in the headlight, but I havent been able to find the LED cluster available alone. the headlights do look awesome. even better if they matched the reflectors.

as it stands the 06 reflectors may become something of fog lights. I may offer a high output version just for that purpose.

I had no idea the new reflectors were so.. "3D" in comparison to the old ones.

ok pricing is in. these prices include shipping to your door. I think these actually came in at a very fair price since they are coming from japan, 03-05 reflectors are about 58$ shipped from most sellers.

<15sets- 100$ each

15-24 - 75$ each

25+ - 70$ each



to get an idea of support on this Id like for everyone to sign up for a set if your interested. no payment needed yet, so no commitment, but please dont sign up if your not actually going to purchase. the price break doesnt kick in till 15 pieces, and I cant do anything about that.

please copy and paste this from the person before you adding your name to the list under the price point your willing to order it for. if there are enough total orders to hit that price range then everyone will get it at that price. once it seems interest is exhausted Ill send PMs to everyone that signed up with information about payment.

there will be an LED option available to those that want, pricing and pics to come for that. it will just be a fixed price add on to the reflector price.

100$


75$


70$
