Anyone know where to buy a new front bumper for a 1971 240Z? Has anyone bought one from Black Dragon and if so, how was it?

hi, can anyone tell me if a set of louvers bought for a 280Z will fit a 240Z? also I'm trying to locate the type of rear window louvers that have the more curved edges not the angular ones, is there a way to differentiate? I know some are ABS and some aluminum but I'm not sure that speaks to the shape of the louver or not? Thanks.

Ok, so I'm wondering (in short) what the right color for my grille is supposed to be? I've been contending with what looks like the same color as the rest of the car (i.e. a cheap paintjob that shot everything basically) on my grille for a while, and I figure that since I've got a few free afternoons (plus good weather) coming up I could reshoot it with something else. Now I've seen silverish/gray ones, but I've also seen black-ish colors. What's correct? Personally I'm inclined to shoot it black (even the plastic fascias for the turn signals got hit with silver overspray, and these look like they are supposed to be black) ... but I figure someone on here's gotta know.…

As a lot of you know I have decided to go ahead and try and fix the rust on my 72. In the photos of everyone doing rust repair, the Bad Dog or rails from Charlie are always already welded in. My Bad Dog rails do not reach up to the T/C mount on the frame. I need a shot or two of that area so I can get an idea on what I need to rebuild from the T/C mount back to the area that the Bad Dog rail will reach. The driver side of my car is still there, and I dont want to cut the good to see how it is put together, the passenger side is gone. If you have a good shot of the area can you post or send to my email please. Something that shows the T/C box, or if you replaced it wi…

would it be cheaper if i bought a complete roller instead of repairing rust. because im worried about rigidity problems in the future? Also would a roll cage be called for if i was swapping out the l24 for an ls1?
