alright guys, just a quick and simple question. I need a hood, left fender, headlight buckets, and a lower valence for my 240Z. I was looking around at the local junkyards, and found a 280z that had all of these parts on them. My question is (and I know it's really basic, forgive me) will these parts from the 280z fit on my 240z just fine? I know there isn't too much of a difference in the 280's body over the 240, with the exception of bumpers, marker lenses, taillights, emblems, etc.

So, will these work? I'm going to pull them tomorrow if they will!

Fender & hood are compatible. Are your headlight buckets fiberglass? I would bet that one on a 280 would be metal but it should still fit fine. Lower valence? I can't say with any certaintly on that one.

my 240Z had the fiberglass headlight buckets, but I figured that if I can get the metal ones for cheap, I might as well get them.

I do believe the lower valence is not compatiable ( I am not 100%), but I lead to believe it so because when I talked on the forum before about doing the switch to 240z bumpers on my 280z they said I would have to do the lower valence switch. I think they will still work, but will take some small mods.

Lower valence is completely different. No turn signals below the bumper on the 280Z, and the valance itself is deeper to cover the larger 280Z radiator.

Arne,

I know the corner pieces are different, but just to confirm, the center piece IS totally different as well? I thought it was but wasn't totally sure.

I believe so, yes.

Speaking of different parts on different cars since 280Z are heavier I am puting on 260Z bumbers. I think the front valance should work but, I am not certain.

I got all of my pieces, in brand new condition, minus the valence, for $106.
