Shipping was almost as much as the bumper. Also the picture he has up is so cheesy you have to wonder about the quality.

I had all my bumpers re-chromed on my 240Z projects by Denver Bumper Works. They do triple-plate chroming that is superior in quality to the original bumpers and their prices are reasonable. Here's the link:

I bought mine from the dealer a year ago. Courtesy Nissan online shows the USA version 62650-n3300 available but not the canadian 62650-n3301.

Whats the difference?

The Canadian bumper has mounting holes for a snow plow attachment

(sorry... winter is getting to me)

I hadnt thought of that..............

I started to get excited when using the part number search function on Courtesys website, so many parts I heard were not available were suddenly 3-4 days away.:stupid:

I thought the BRE spook was the Canadian snow plow .

I managed to snag a new NOS '72 front bumper from my Nissan dealership parts guy a few weeks ago (just need overriders now!). If you keep checking every so often, sometimes a part you are looking for will "pop up" on the available parts listing if you get lucky

[mikemerkury]

Anyone know if there is a way to check Nissan parts listing (and NOS parts availability from Japan ), online without bothering any dealership ?

[DougN]

if you want to pay the "big bucks", this guy appears to have a new OEM 70-72 front bumper:

That is a sweet price to pay........I think you can probably rechrome one for 1/2 that price, but it's tempting to get the real deal. Thanks Doug

Diseazd,

I bought the 260Z bumper from Black Dragon about a year ago. I really didn’t see any difference between the 240 and the 260 unless they sent me the wrong one.

Part 99-024 FRONT BUMPER BAR 149.95 my total was $200 with shipping to NJ. Btw, I used it on a 280z and it looks great.

Rick....Thanks for your reply....Yes it puzzled me why the 260 bumper was so much cheaper than the 240. Was the quality good? Do you know if was an OEM or a knock-off? Thanks Guy
