I have a 2007 nismo 350z. I had a incident where the driver side skirt got damaged and I am looking for any removal instruction on the OEM nismo side skirt.

I already got the replacement side skirt but need to take this off!!


Ive searched but cant find any help on this.

Thank you in advance

 

You probably won't find any removal instructions on the NISMO sideskirts. I put a set of them onto a Nissan Sport Magazine racecar and they used a set of internal blind fasteners to hold them onto the OEM sideskirts. I'd remove the sideskirts themselves by jacking up and supporting the side you're removing. There are 8-9 10 mm bolts on the bottom and 1-2 fastners/screws in the wheelwells holding them on. Open the door and pull laterally on the sideskirt to release it. Then you'll need to see how the NISMO additions are held on. Hope this helps!

 

...And then post a DIY so we all know how to do it as well! Good luck!

 

You shouldn't have to remove the entire side skirt.

 

I went through this ordeal a while back, you do have to remove the entire side skirt... its much easier once you do....

 

Okay, So I got it painted and replaced. I Had to remove the whole side skirt in order for me to get the (gray) nismo side skirt lip off...

I took some pics also, so the next person knows what he/she is doing...

thanks for all your help guys, Ill post up the pics in the next couple of days!!

 

so it comes as one piece or three pieces?

 

Wow, being a nismo owner, I never knew that the sideskirt was like that haha...Interesting!

 

anyupdate pics on this?

 

sorry this is my gf's car and I was just trying to figure things out for her

I did take some pics tho so for future reference, other nismo owners can figure this out easier...

When she 1st damaged it

You have to take out the actual side skirt 1st, the gray piece is attached to it from the back side

side picture, showing how the clips are attached...

Taking off the gray piece from the acutal side skirt, they are attached by 10mm bolts (i think)

better pic of the bolts

In this picture, the side skirt was getting painted...




here is the final product

 

Anyone know where I can get the bolts for these side skirts? Both sides of my nismo skirts are missing the bolts behind the front fender causing them to move out of place.

 

The dealership. They may be special order.
