just email the pic to Z1 or courtesy nissan and have them generate you the parts list you will need for the suspension.

inspect that aluminum crossmember for cracks!!

thanks and I did briefly and insurance adjuster did as well and my body shop did as well but NO CRACKS :) but its not torn down yet so who knows if we find something. Thats a good idea and I will do that. Thanks for the advice my friend.
