Having said that - you can find unpainted urethane sport bumper copies on ebay etc for about $200 delivered, that you can have painted to match whatever. If you feel the need to replace it. Or have it wrapped. TBH, I got lucky since my car is black everything defaults to black and the matte finish on trim actually looks decent LOL.

Look on Alibaba and sometimes amazon for replacement lens covers - that is, the whole clear plastic part for the lights. You'd have to bake them open and replace with new buytl, but it's far cheaper than new from Nissan.

Also - 260K? Damn brother. That's held up amazingly well.
Oh, I'm unfortunately aware of the discrepancy between the members here and even more so on crackbook! This is the reason I asked initially about the sources. I can't find a cheaper spoiler <$350 delivered. It's more than a fake carbon one my F80! F-that! Post some if you can find me some. I can't. The OEM style tack on had rubbed the bumper in places that it really needs another to cover the issues.

While I am checking for some prices for maintenance items, and for "poops and giggles," what is your paint code? (Yes, it matters when it comes to cost). And, just to make sure I am looking at the right thing, you are wanting the "Front Chin Spoiler" (p/n/: K6010-xxxxx), yes?

Backstory: on a few occasions I have had to order body-coloured pieces for my G- most recently the passenger-side A-Pillar trim piece which you can not find anywhere here in North America (I looked everywhere).

As these cars are "old" most US dealers do not stock/ will not order these parts and what is available is often "pre-primered" for you to have paint matched.It was more difficult in my case as I have the "rare(?)" K57 color and wouldn't trust any local shops to paint the broad-side of the Titanic especially for what they're charging...

Anyway, I have found that ≈95% of these parts are still available overseas, pre-painted, and, even with international shipping, often much cheaper than US prices if they were available in the first place.

That said, not sure how helpful- or painful- this is but this what I found:
Front Chin Spoiler - Amayama



(Ignore the $437 quote- this site is way too expensive- I mainly use them as they have the most up-to-date catalog/ p/n's).

Again, this is pre-painted in your colour code. Shipping should not be too drastic due to the small size of the box. But, at least you have another option to consider...

I looked for my prior purchase in ebay and that seller is no longer active; looking at other listings it seems they're all $400+ now, OEM or not. :shrug: sorry about that.

Are you in Charlotte now, or Indy? I regularly get notifications of G37s going into the yard in Greensboro LKQ.
