I got my z about maybe 4 months ago and since then I have replaced the t tops and the exhaust. The interior is totally ****ed and I plan to get new seats soon to put her on the road. That is not all of my issues though. Some dumbass pained like 20 percent of the interior panels a queer royal blue with my stock TAN interior and it looks like ***... Not to mention that since one of the t tops were GONE it is all moldy and poopy inside.. most of the dash and drivers side panels will do but the passenger door panel is jacked and i need a new one and i need to replace the three panels over the taillights... So far I have ripped out the back seat and stripped down everything behind them to clean it out and dry up the moisture... The car only has 77k on it and it runs beautifully but for some reason the high beams dont work which i am going to assume is a fuse for now. Also it had been in one minor wreck with the previous owner where the passenger side went up and over a stump and ever since the fix the pass headlight is tweaked downward... Under the hood there is all kinds of ducttape and **** holding the headlight backing together for some reason and the pass turn signal is cracked. Basically what I am asking is where can i get my tan interior panels for the back and the passenger door and my seats and turn signal and possibly a new passenger headlight assembly. Anyone parting out or not needing and willing to sell?

the front end parts are kinda hard to find as most Z's find themselves being parted due to frotn end collisions, keep an eye on the classifieds here and ebay and anywhere else you can think of

as for the high beams, it might be the headlight switch stalk, I've had that problem and the part was pretty cheap from the dealer, thinking like $60 but that was years ago so who know now worth looking into at least

Man that's one heck of a project....

For the interior parts your best bet it to search around for someone parting out a Z32 with a tan interior because the pieces new from the dealership are insanely expensive.

I would look on ebay, if you can find any z's in the junkyard, they will want a ton for the parts. I have priced a few hard to find things like door glass (to the tune of 175 per side) where I bought them on ebay for less than 100 for the pair. Right now I am in search of some door panels. Good luck with the project.

BTW, you can take the seats out and pressure wash them. you just have to let them sit in the sun for a few days to dry out. My seats were all ripped up when I bought the z, so I got some seats from a flooded one, needless to say they smelled like a pond, so I got out the pressure washer, and now they have been in there for 4 years with no problems. So you might want to try that first.

I wanted to see if i could buy from one of you nico boys that may be partin out to support the cause instead of paying an arm and a leg at the dealer... I already sent an email to z1 asking them too.
