Nismo Engine cover trade?

Super Tanooki · 05-17-2011, 05:35 AM

Long shot, I know. Stupid even. But hey, it's worth a try for free.

I have a Red Base Sport 370 with the stock silver engine cover. I REALLY want the red engine cover that comes with the Nismo - just to match my exterior paint. But the $200+ asking price for one is a major downer.

Is there anyone out there who would be up for a trade? Maybe a silver Nismo owner who'd like the color coding? Or maybe a Nismo owner with the Stillen supercharger which has rendered their red engine cover useless. Or even just someone feeling charitable towards an obsessive red Z owner...?

I live in Vegas, and will be in LA from June 5 to June 10 should anyone be over there.

My cover's clean. Car has 8000k on it. Garaged and babied. Anyway, here goes...
