well im sure most saw the pics earlier of my black 240 with no rims(rims came in today)
but sice those ****in kids tried to rip out my stereo, they broke the plastic paneling(the same paneling that runs around the lighter inlet, and around the din) i heard this price isnt cheap, if someone can get it, that would help a lot. cause if not im just gonna get a dash kit, most likeley carbon fiber to lay over the missed pieces(ill reinforce will pices behind) basicly to hide the blemishes or chunks missing
any "imo's" will help

id say go to a junkyard ur gonna eventually find the pieces there and u'll get'em in good condition!

You should be able to get it for way less than 20 bucks from a junkyard.. Don't even think about getting it from nissan, its insane $$$

Actually, I know a guy that has a video screen in the stock radio area, with the A/C/Heater controls underneath it where the ashtray and lighter used to be. he made a template with a piece of wood and is gelcoating it. i've seen what he's going for and it looks really nice (he did the "same thing" on his friend's focus). in the stock A/C area was his pre-amp EQ.
the point is: you can always just use this as an opportunity to customize a piece with wood or fiberglass.
The panel that houses the cigarette lighter the stereo and the little compartment where you can put trash, in the S15, costs about $60-$70 from the nissan dealer. Tell them you're from a body shop or a mechanic and usually you can get 15% off. When I first bought my 97 240, it was cracked a little but I didnt worry about it, until one day the hot sun cracked it into two pieces. I had to buy a new one for $60, what a ripoff. Thats one place where I like toyota, their plastic parts are not so cheap and shitty.
