240 Z Front and Rear Bumper "Shims"


Love my 72 240Z

Recommended Posts

Alright, I am so close to being finished with "REFRESHING" my 72 240Z. I pulled the bumpers and media blasted the interior portions and then POR 15 the insides to make sure I never have rust problems. I was ready to put on the new exterior rubber trim pieces and noticed that the rubber pieces (that go between the outer bumper brackets and the fender - keeps bracket from scratching paint) were shot and had one missing. I have access to Nissan microfilm and found something that looked like a "shim" - called Nissan and they said "NLA". Any idea if these "shims" (if I have identified the right part) are available as "aftermarket" or have some of you crafty guys used "other things" to accomplish the purpose as original pieces were intended. Thanks for the help. David Jacks - Fort Worth, Texas

P.S. I have the end cap "fillers" on the rear bumpers - so I am not seeking these particular rubber parts. Thanks, David

David,

I think I can help. If you go to Banzai Motorworks web site, www.zzxdatsun.com, and check out his catalog menu, I think you will find these item in reproduction form. They are of excellent quality.

Listed under rubber, the item numbers are:

Front bumper end bracket insulators BO-52

Rear bumper end bracket insulators BO-53

He sells them for $10 each, and, as a disclaimer, I am in no way associated with this website.

Dan,

Thank you, thank you, thank you... these are the boys :) Also, looked around Banzai site and found some other goods... I am afraid I am going to spend some money with Dan at Banzai. Thank you again for saving me time and energy in acquiring these needed pieces. Have a great evening.
