Currently have a G35 and I am still thinking about what to get. IS250 (6mt) because the IS350 only comes with auto or the paddle shift, 2009 TL, 3 Serie, or the G37.

Has anyone had this done? I'm not really feeling the Sports bumper. Looking to pick one up in BO and fully loaded, w/o RAS..

The only way to do it is to find and trade someone who has it. Or you could go to a body shop but that'll cost $$$

They can't just work with you and throw in a bumper as a add or something. Kinda like how they can add a spoiler, etc etc.

I'll contact the web sales and find out.

You can try, but I don't think the dealer will do it. Good luck though!

I'm sure they would, but I think it would be special order. I don't know if they might charge you though. Just go to the dealership and really make them feel like they're gonna lose a sale if they can't do that for you. I'm sure they'll give in.

+1 bro, the sports bumper is terrible looking. I wish nissan would change the damn thing already...and add an option for a non chrome lip spoiler.

There would be alot of non sport guys here that would trade... you may be the only 2 on here that has negative remarks toward the front sport bumper... kinda suprising...

The non-sports kinda growing on me now. I look around a lot when I drive and see the sport style bumper look on a lot of regular cars that aren't even sporty at all.

Which is exactly why we need a damn lip-kit or Eric needs to hurry up with that new bumper.

why? is it even worth it to spend money for this conversion which will not make a lot of difference? why not allocate the money to performance mods or wheels?

because the sports bumper to me, makes the car look like a blowfish or a puffer fish. and i don't care for performance mods. i'm 24 and grown out of it. besides, intake, exhaust, header, don't increase performance by much anyways.

And wheels, well, I already have wheels. But they're for sale because they only fit the G35. I'm selling both the new wheels and my G35. The wheels are in the fs section here.

i am 29 still like prefomance mods. I don't think it has anything to do with age. I am married even still like the prefomance mods.


As for the bumper find a person to swap. I don't think the dealer will do this for you with out alot of coin.
