Found a good Infiniti dealer in the USA who ships international.

Sewell Infiniti in Texas.

Just ordered and OEM Front plate bracket (USD $90.40) as my local Nissan Dealer can't get it.

Just thought I should let you know for those trying to source parts from the US.

Used them before and would use them again - Josh there was very helpful. One of the items I ordered from Sewell was a replacement in-cabin filter and it arrived crushed because they packed it loose amongst other items (stupid). They shipped over a replacement (in a box this time) at no cost to me - it was no fuss.

I rang a random Infiniti dealer and asked if they shipped to aus and they said to call sewell Infiniti and I rand them and the guy was very helpful, knew his product and willing to ship to Aus.

How long did the part take to arrive from the US? Because I ordered a plate bracket? Shouldn't take that long should it.

Also I will try that other dealer recommended!

Can someone post links to these guys?

Have you tried your local Nissan dealer Paul? Some don't want to know you, but others are very helpful.

I tried to get the steering wheel controls for your cruise control from Riverside. Found them very slow to respond & price was no cheaper than my local Nissan spare parts but when shipping was added they were heaps dearer. Now I buy everything locally & constantly amazed at how quickly the most obscure parts will turn up - often the next day.

My local Nissan dealer said they can only get mechanical and things that the V35 and 350Z share in common.

Sorry to say they are an example of one that isn't interested in helping out.

It's a silly stand to for them make since all they do is put a part number into the computer, tell you how much it will be & then order it in if you agree on the price. I'm sure they make the same margins on the V35 specific parts as they would on the 350Z ones.

Any others in nearby suburbs or towns?

It arrived and it's on. Arrived before the 5-7day quoted time.

Fits well and looks much nicer that having to bend both edges of your plates to fit it in the gap.

Even if Nissan aust could get it I don't think it would have come quicker than what I got mine from the US

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
