I'm not posting them for sale yet, so Mods, please don't hassle me about posting in the General forum...I have a set of Veilside C1 skirts and Stillen gtzr-2 front bumper that came on my car when i bought it and I don't like neither. I see alot of Z's with the Veilside skirts, and a few with the bumper, so I figured someone might want them. But the problem is, I don't have a clue as to what I should price them at. I know the bumper is between $4-500 new, and I will be selling mine primed and ready to be prepped for paint as the PO did a s*** paint job and it is flaking off. the skirts will be sold as is because the paint job is decent, nothing some sanding and primer won't fix. Any suggestions on price? I'll sell together or seperate. I'll post in the classifieds as soon as I get an idea what they"re worth

Honestly man you likely wont get a good answer here because most Z32 enthusiasts don't go for that sort of thing, its just not clean and probably the same reason you are selling them. I'd say do some ebay and CL research and go from there because if I were stuck with those I'd likely give them away or burn them.

Yea this is what I was going to say... Most of us here don't like them either... You should post them on craigslist... You may have a better chance of finding a buyer on Craigslist than here for those particular pieces.

Thanks guys, I figured as much. I was hoping to get enough out of them to buy an OEM bumper. I'm gonna primer the whole car grey and drive it. It'll look better that way than 3 different shades of red. The PO really screwed this car up and I'm having to fix it. I discover more and more each time I work on it :facepalm:

Real Veilside skirts may fetch a premium, as those who do like them, really like them. Combined with VS recently going out of business, they should sell well. Package them properly and try eBay, you may be surprised.

I respect people who have the guts to bring a previously neglected car back to its glory days. Good job dude! :bigthumb:

Thanks man, I like driving nice things and take pride in my vehicles. It may not look the best when I'm done, but I guarantee it'll be reliable for a DD. My dad paid 2300 for it, and I've spent almost a grand on the interior and almost 2 on the engine/driveline and there's still more to be spent. I know I'll never get my money back if I sell it, but I love this car and don't see myself letting it go anytime soon. I'm buying parts as I come across a little money, so it's taking longer than I want

Oh these are real, fiberglass and have the aged veilside sticker on the inside. I've noticed some sites have ungodly prices on NOS ones. I'll try craigslist, I'll post some pics of everything tomorrow. Fair warning though, the front bumper looks rough cause the paint
