Need a turn signal lense for a '79-'81 front bumper

Hey everybody, I recently got a front bumper off a '81 280zx. And the passenger side turn signal lense is busted. If any of you have one in great shape. Let me know here, or PM me, and thanks.

So nobody has an extra one to sell? I only need one, I don't think the ones out of my '82 front bumper will work. And I have been checking e-bay peridically to no avail.

So you are saying both turn signals for the front bumper, if I join the members club, paying the $20? That sounds like a good deal. And I really did want to join, just short on cash right now. Yeah just let me know when you find them, and thanks bro' appreciate it. BTW nice sales pitch man, worked like a charm LOL.

Does the turn signal from an 83 work with the older bumpers? I might have one I can spare.

No unfortunately they don't. The '79-'81, and the '82-'83 were different. The early ones were longer, and the later ones were shorter. As you can see in my signature pic. Thanks anyway man, appreciate it. Keep a lookout if you could, and thanks for the replies guys.

Well it sure seems to be a PITA to find these turn signal lenses. Oh well patience is a virtue. I will keep looking, and hopefully I will find some. Or somebody else, will hook me up. Just want to keep this wanted thread alive.

Okay I just won the turn signal lenses on e-bay today. So I am good to go, and going by the pics, they look like the '79-'81 lenses. Thanks for everybody's help.
