I did a search and did not come up with anything, so here goes:

I have been searching eBay for miscellaneous car parts and I keep coming across the clear sidemarker reflectors for the Z front bumper for $20, which is very tempting. However, I have a 2006 Z and I know they made some changes to the front bumper that prevents proper fitment of aftermarket front lips from previous years...so I am wondering what else changed? Specifically, has anyone here replaced their orange stock front reflectors with the clear type that can be found on eBay? They all say 2003-2005 in their description, but I am wondering if they will fit the 2006 as well.

All input is appreciated!

From what i understand no they will not fit. They changed the way they're mounted to the bumper somehow.

 

Friend bought them and they didn't fit, they need to come out with '06+ already...

 

They already have. I have seen many websites selling them (no, not eBay!).

 

Really? Got a linky? I need to get rid of those oranges things ASAP.

call the guys at Performance Nissan

 

dont think the actually have them still

and now the 06 is drasticly different from the 03-05 in every way on the reflectors. I cant possibly think of any way they could be swapped.

the ebay reflectors are a bit... crappy though. Ive toyed with them. they are really inferior. and no, I dont sell nissan reflectors or anything. I modify nissan reflectors, I pay 50$ for them like everyone else(ask jason at performance lol). Id love to use 20$ reflectors and lower my prices by 30$. but I tried them. they were just too cheap. they werent really sealed, there is no question they would eventually fill with water(dont know if they are all like the set I recieved, but I gotta figure I didnt get the only bad one). and the reflector pattern had a very different look to it as well.
