Default 2005 350Z W/ 2006 front bumper

So after my car got hit parked in the mean streets of alhambra.



The car used to look like this.



Decided to upgrade to the newer 06-07 Front end. Now I just need the headlights. Its not a 100% perfect fit, but I dont care it looks bad *** to me.

Differences are the inserts, and at the bottom of the bumper theres like an indentation.

I dig the bigger inserts. One thing I dont like when ppl get that stick on chrome and stick it on the inserts.

Apparently the orange side markers in the bumpers didnt fit, had to get new ones.

It isnt perfect along the headlights. ill take pics later to show that.

Im looking for the 03-05 HID headlights, the 06 is kinda pricey. Using aftermarket HID's with the halogen headlamp blows.

if anyone has 03-05 hid headlamps they wanna sell, let me know.

First Ive seen 05 lights with 06 bumper hehe.,

I see a huge differences in the bumper. Changes the whole charector of the front end. I never thought the Z looked good in front until the 06 came out.
