Administrators gav240z Posted August 11, 2015 Administrators Share Posted August 11, 2015 Hi Guys, I'm looking to import several beaver panels to suit a 240z*, this is the lower section of the beaver panel only (below the tail lights). At the moment I'm looking at bringing in between 5-10, I figure there is probably a lot of demand for these. *260z owners - The rear beaver panel is different, although this technically could be used if you're willing to patch up a few factory holes in the rear beaver panel and possibly smooth out the indented section. Price will vary from $300 - $350 AUD landed here. + Postage to you. Hard to give a final figure till I know total shipping cost. If you're interested please just give a +1.

Administrators gav240z Posted August 15, 2015 Author Administrators Share Posted August 15, 2015 Another quick bump, I'll likely order a couple of these within the next couple of weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators gav240z Posted August 30, 2015 Author Administrators Share Posted August 30, 2015 I got in contact with the supplier but as of yet no reply re: price and shipping quote. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty_Rah Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 If these would suit a 260z - I'm in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators gav240z Posted September 5, 2015 Author Administrators Share Posted September 5, 2015 The 260z rear beaver is a little different, so I guess it depends on your definition of suit. It could be made to work, but given the fact that the supplier still has not got back to me and the fact that the AUD vs USD is in constant decline I'm thinking I might wait to see if Wayne finally makes some. http://www.viczcar.com/forum/forum/37-automotive-panel-craft/ Otherwise there is motorsport auto, or hand fabricating them. Which will take longer, but I don't think it should be too difficult to replicate these pieces. The only part I'm not sure about is weather you would first give the piece the curvature with a roller and then add the indentation (for 240z / Early S30z's only) and the sections for the bumper + exhaust cut out or if you would do those first and then attempt to roll it. I think rolling first makes more sense than after. Just takes a lot more time to fabricate stuff like this, than buying a pre-made panel to fit.

Administrators gav240z Posted October 17, 2015 Author Administrators Share Posted October 17, 2015 Unfortunately this supplier did not get back to me. I may try again but I'm currently committed to a couple of other purchases. I am hoping that perhaps Wayne will make some soon? http://www.viczcar.com/forum/topic/13370-automotive-panel-craft-introduction/page-2 If not I'll chase these guys up soon, once I've unpicked my beaver panel to see what it looks like behind etc..

Hokin Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Hi gav, did the rear beaver panel also include the tail light area from Canada? If not I'm hoping Wayne gets on top of this. Definately a gap in the market. I'm interested at the present for this. Don't want to have to find a shell to cut up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators gav240z Posted October 22, 2015 Author Administrators Share Posted October 22, 2015 No it is just the lower portion. I will chase this up again soon. Scotty_Rah 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators gav240z Posted December 14, 2015 Author Administrators Share Posted December 14, 2015 This may be back on, got in contact with the original supplier and I am thinking of importing around 6 of these (1 for myself). Will give an update soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators gav240z Posted February 15, 2016 Author Administrators Share Posted February 15, 2016 I'm going to import a couple of these. Just finalising payment details and delivery. Freight is not cheap, going by air. Due to limited interest only bringing in a couple at this stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drifta1600 Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 These beavers still available? I know it's an old post. Or do you know where I can get one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators gav240z Posted September 20, 2020 Author Administrators Share Posted September 20, 2020 All gone long long ago. Best to buy from the UK auto panel solutions I think? Andy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
