My convertible received a vey hard impact at rear side. the gas tank is broken , all lights, the plate, the right side panel is broken or excesive bended due to the impact. I like to know where I can get used parts fro my car. I try to get the parts in puerto rico but the convertible edition did come to puerto rico.

That sucks man!Those parts aside from the fender are all the same as the coupe version is any junkyard in your area has one of those.car-parts.com can find junkyard in the america with parts but i'm sure shipping will kill you if they are willing to ship at all.Most expensive would be the dealership if they still have what you need.http://www.nissanparts.org/ is one of the cheaper dealerships and has a pricing menu on their site.

Good Luck!

I've got rear ended 2 times, so I know what you are talking about. Luckily, both times I just had cosmetic damage on the bumper. I just took it off myself, took it to the paint shop and installed myself. The heaviest part would be the frame that goes inside of rear bumper. It was heavy as hell. It sounds like you have to find those parts somehow, cut damaged area on your car and weld new parts on. Frame needs to be fixed if it's bent. Man... you are looking at whole lot of money to fix it. Right side quarter panel(78112-59F30) alone is about $450. Vert and coupe have different part numbers, and I don't know the difference. Rear panel is $250, rear garnish is $110, gas tank is $300, tail lights are $320, bumper reinforcement is $190 and rear bumper cover is $277. I guess you're better off if you find complete coupe or vert rear end clip. You know what I mean? Did coupe ever make to Puerto Rico? If so, find a junk coupe. That would be your best bet.

Ugh, yeah, your best bet is to find an S13 coupe, but even those aren't terribly common.

Too bad you don't live near me; I could get you everything you need off of a totaled vert for about $200. There's no way I can ship it you, though.
