ktown z Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 I have decided to swap out my 280z front grill and turn signals for the 240z versions. I have already done a 240z bumper swap. If iI purchase a new 240z air damn, grill, and turn signal housing, will it be an easy swap? Will the 240 grill bolt in the 280z mounting holes with the 280z turn signals moved to the new air damn? Thanks , James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfg Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 If I remember correctly the Grill may need some modification but I imagine making new mounting points wouldn't be too difficult. The light bulb sockets for the turn signals are different from the 240 to the 280. I've switched to the 240 airdam as well but I still need to remove the 280z sockets and solder in the 240z style. The other way would be to modify the turn signal housing, where if you're not planning on keeping the 280 signals you could probably frankenstein the socket mounts and housings. The air dam swap was simple. I got mine from MSA. I have a build thread somewhere you can see the difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktown z Posted August 16, 2014 Author Share Posted August 16, 2014 Thanks for clearing a lot up for me. I don't like the square 280z turn signals. They don't flow with the body. I wish there was a "how to" on modifying the front 240 grill to fit the 280. I dont want to buy the parts and find out it doesn't fit that well. It would drive me crazy!
