Hi all,I am new to this forum, and I recently just got myself a 2005 350Z (the 35th anniversary edition one).

I am planning on maybe getting myself a new front bumper, because the current one is a bit scratched and there's one minor dent on it. And so, I was just wondering if the 2007 front bumper would fit on the 2005 350z also. I am also thinking of maybe changing the hood of the 350z because I like the 2007 design of the hood more, and so I was just wondering if the 2007 hood would fit on the 2005 350z also.

Thank you all in advance.

I'm not 100% sure but I'm pretty certain that the hood and probably bumper too would not fit an 05. They did make some structural changes to the 07 that I would think would prohibit this. Plus, I haven't heard of one person who has done it (I know people want to) but I would think that if it had been done someone would have posted up about how cool it is. Others can chime in here if they have any experience with this but I would guess no.

They should both still fit. They basically made the hood a little higher.

it fits, I sold an 07 bumper to a guy with an 05 350 and it all bolted right up, I don't see why the hood wouldn't work as well, if I remember correctly I had to order him 07 style turn signal lights also
