Wow...absolutely amazing. The styling is slightly different from what I'd do (the grille is a little too big for my taste) BUT, the innovation and creativity and drive it took to actually make these is very respectable.

I think you have a truly amazing product here, WELL DONE

I absolutely love the way this looks. The pictures look even better in this thread. Congrats on a job well done. Maybe you should try for a job at Infiniti!

I didn’t make any of these parts with the intent of reselling as I do like the exclusiveness so keeping that in mind, I may even only make a limited amount.

So here, not factoring in cost just yet, as it would be competitive to what other fiberglass bumpers go for as well as rear diffusers, tell me what you would be interested in. Please keep in mind, the front emblem and mesh will not be included. I can tell you that that alone cost me $100 once all said and done.

Thanks guys!

For those interested in the Emblem, here is the link. Im sure you can find one cheaper but this was the first result I found on E-bay.



INFINITI OEM FRONT GRILLE EMBLEM MT FUGI - FX35 FX45 | eBay


As far as how long till I can ship them out.....I have to slightly modify the rear diffuser and create diagrams to show how to mount it properly...plus I have to take the car off the road to do all this which will suck considering its summer but oh well. lol. I’ll have a better idea come next week though.

Please PM me if you are interested. I have a meeting next week to figure out costs.

Again, the cost on these items will be very comparable to other bumpers and diffusers.

Insane work man, props for pulling this off. Kinda reminds me of the z a little. Only thing i would do now is paint the mesh flat black on both front and diffuser, and add ipl side skirts to make it look flush all around. Great work again kiu!!

Looks great, proportions look right, the plate holder takes away from the look tho. Would love to see how it looks with a darker mesh and no holder.

OK...here you go guys. Darker mesh and another with some chrome accents and the original just for comparison. This is all photoshop but I plan on doing the darker grill and chrome lip I think. Give me your thoughts. I also added a quick one with out the plate in original and blacked out as well. I'll redo the whole thing with out the plate once I paint the mesh.
