One of the top technical inquires received at Ask I-CAR is, “Is there a sectioning or partial replacement procedure available?” To help answer this question, RTS has an OEM Partial Part Replacement Search available. Here you will find information on if these procedures are available on a specific vehicle. Let’s take a closer look at the 2019 Nissan 370Z.
The full OEM Partial Part Replacement Search page for the 2019 Nissan 370Z can be viewed on the I-CAR website. This will give you a good understanding on general areas for sectioning or partial replacement. I-CAR does not have permission to show exact locations for sectioning or the procedure itself. However, Nissan has a paid subscription website with collision repair information.
The front lower and upper rails have OEM procedures for partial part replacement at factory seams. The outer uniside, uniside reinforcement, and inner uniside have procedures available for sectioning according to the body repair manual. There are multiple locations in which the rear rails can be partially replaced at factory seams. OEM procedures are available for trunk floor sectioning. No procedures are available for the rear body panel, full part replacement is the only option.
