Being a 2013, I assume you have the NON-SPORT bumper?
Not the sport, not the IPL, correct?

Is that lip an "X" feature?

When my 2010 had the sport bumper, which is the 2013 non-sport, I never saw that.

What happens when you put the splitter under the bumper cover, and butt it up against that lip?? Does it look right??

If so, you drill into the bumper cover.

after contacting aeroflow also and them sending over a generic "installation instruction" (its a 2 page joke)

bingo that seems to be the answer

it was confusing because the predrilled holes line up perfect with the bolts for the stock under shield so thats where i thought it would go

this still doesnt answer the pre drilled holes / hardware issue ?

hope to try the install soon

That looks damn good.
I was a little confused on the sport/non sport bumper differentiation by year. But, NOW I see: 2008-2010 G37 SPORT is the 2011-2013 G37 NON SPORT. This looks like just what I'd like to get.

Any tips now that you have it installed? Where'd you buy? Still liking it a few months later?

Great splitter, and it is bolted on w/ washers. You can buy it from Aeroflow Dynamics (google the name). You can mention Henry with the G37 sent you and see if they can help you out

Thank you. I sent them an email inquiring about the 2008-2013 INFINITI G37 COUPE SIDE SKIRT EXTENSION V2 as well. They don't have any images. Hoping they flow well. Name dropped you too.

Thanks for the info. The v2 front splitter and side skirts have been ordered. I may reach out to you with a few install questions if you don't mind. I'm pretty handy and think I can do it without "professional installation".
