akzcar Posted February 18, 2017 Share #1 Posted February 18, 2017 So I am putting together a 75 280 and I have a 77 parts car. Turns out that the doors do not interchange so now I need 75 door skins does anyone make them? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patcon Posted February 18, 2017 Share #2 Posted February 18, 2017 What is the issue with the old skin? How did you remove it? I believe all of the skins are the same, the internals are different and the door strikes are different I believe... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akzcar Posted February 19, 2017 Author Share #3 Posted February 19, 2017 What is the issue with the old skin? How did you remove it? I believe all of the skins are the same, the internals are different and the door strikes are different I believe...The whole back of the doors are different but it turned out that the skins were the same. I had to replace the skin because of copious amounts of cancer. I ended up removing both skins with a screwdriver and hammer and installed the good used skin from the 77 onto the 75 door shell. Just used a skinning hammer and dolly for installation.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martzedcars Posted February 20, 2017 Share #6 Posted February 20, 2017 The skin on my pic. has No: 80151-N3400 a 260z (for euro) number.. Question is does it fit a 240z? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLPurcell Posted February 20, 2017 Share #7 Posted February 20, 2017 I have a set for the 240z they we modified them for light weight race doors and ended up not using them. I am sure they could still be used as skins. JLP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsmith5 Posted May 15, 2017 Share #8 Posted May 15, 2017 Sent you a message about these. I could potentially use if they are still available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutchzcarguy Posted May 15, 2017 Share #9 Posted May 15, 2017 Your in LA? Seems to me like bringing water to the sea.. these skins are very hard to come by in the Netherlands.. In the states you can't find a skin? I'm not in a hurry to sell but these are new ones .. over 200 euro /piece..? i don't know. not investigated yet..

jsmith5 Posted May 16, 2017 Share #10 Posted May 16, 2017 I have not found any new skins in the U.S. There are some being sold in Australia. I have a lead on a used skin, and I hope to avoid shipping from overseas. I will certainly let you know if I want yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
