Sorry if this has been posted. Been watching this thread very closely, Thought I'd post it up for anyone that hasn't seen it. Definitely keen on a new set of guards. http://the510realm.com/viewtopic.php?f= ... 1&start=30 |

Cool. I was thinking the tail light panel from that thread may have something to do with musclecarparts panel listed on eBay. |

Ive been out to muscle car parts and got a tail light panel of them and the quality was good but they told me they were making and paying for the moulds so i wonder if they own the moulds or if these will be a second set of moulds or if they blokes in taiwan are doing a shifty |

I believe it was a deal done with a few companies together so are the same moulds just with different indicator holes etc from what I have seen is that futo and muscle car parts lists are the exact same but I could be wrong lol. Cheers, Richard |

Anyway Its great news, even better that someone in sydney will be stocking them so I can check them out before purchase. I see there making new oem style rubber fuel filler pipes on a 1600. They should be popular aswell. |

Hi Nik They don't have the panels yet. I am sure they will post them on their website when they come in. http://www.allmusclecarparts.com.au/ Regards Jason |

This would be fantastic if it happens, the 1600 that we drive daily is rusted to hell and getting it repaired is just too expensive. Replacement panels would be a godsend |

I googled musclecar parts last night and found there face book page and they must have some sample guards there as they have pics of them test fitting on a 1600. On the same page is where I saw the pic of the rubber fuel filler hose aswell. |

One thing I don't get is remaking the bonnet latch and catch as I thought these were still available from Nissan. Sure they could sell if they were a lot cheaper but at the advertised price of us$250 I don't really see the sense in it. |

Baz sells the bottom and top for $100 for both from memory. Well $52 for the upper one and $48 for the lower it says on the website. |

Actually the price of the boomer latch assembly has been removed from the thread, maybe $250 was a typo. |

The ones we supply are not the same as the original.Well $52 for the upper one and $48 for the lower it says on the website. We have been supplying this type for years. They have additional springs & a more secure latch mechanism. The original 1600 catches were notorious for releasing the bonnet. Many a datto owner has had the bonnet fly open with expensive results. Compare the catch in the pic to the one you have. http://www.datsport.com/body-bonnet-catch-lower.html Note that we are also supplying the new body panels, once we check them out. We did have a couple of the rear lamp panels & decided not to handle them. |
