Default The brown truck came Friday...

and inside was a new front bumper and side skirts!!! The ZR will be going to the painter Monday to get these parts painted and intalled. I cannot wait to see the end product.
BTW, the bumper is a MSA Type 7 and the skirts are Stillen type 2.

Nice, that should be a clean setup. Haven't seen much from MSA on the 350 but they have a great reputation on prior Z generations.

I like, be sure and post pics when done! Btw, I had to postpone installing the springs I got from you. My other project required some funding!

Looks good OP, I almost went with the MSA Type 7 bumper as well.

Its a replica of the longnose Type E, except not as long

Per Road & Track -

Long-Nose Z

Computer-enhanced image courtesy Best Car
Nissan recently took the veil off a future version of its 350Z sports car. Dubbed the Fairlady Z Type E ("E" stands for emotional), the car was created to be the foundation for Nismo's GT500-class entry in the Japanese GT racing championship.

The Fairlady Z Type E is noticeably longer than the current 350Z — 7.1 in. in front and 5.3 in. at the rear. The nose of the car is completely new, the front fenders are wider, while the rear is highlighted by a flamboyant wing (on the Nismo version only) and a spoiler lip located at the bottom of the rear bumper.

The Z Type E goes on sale this spring in Japan, with a price tag of about $60,000. Let's hope they bring some to the U.S. — SM

I will post pics when the job is completed.

I hope you get the springs on soon, I know they will look good. I ended up putting a set of the Tein S springs on (supposed to be much less drop than the Tanabe's and I am able to get up my driveway with these on!!!) and I am happy with the look...can't wait till Friday to see all these parts painted and installed!!!
