^^^^Dude - TAKE THE $$$ I did the same thing and did the work myself..

Fender from courtesyparts - $250
Headlight - $100 (fleabay - aint like you have 06-08 headlights)
Paint WHOLE car 3 stage (5 yr guarantee) - $1200
Bumper - Aerosinc - $475 (shipped)
I think I even had to get a fender liner - $50 bucks

Total - 2075 and put the rest in your pocket (or get a couple sets of drift rims, and coilovers, like I did...hehe)

SRSLY...

Anywho - welcome to my350z - your gonna love the new ride man..

Ouch, sorry to hear that happened, but glad to see you're getting it fixed.


Where in North Carolina are you?

I'm in Wilmington these days working for Momentum Performance.
