08 coupe bumper swap with 2011 sport bumper INFO.***
#18
Its pretty simple to figure out your costs, go to the dealership and ask them for the part numbers and prices of the parts I mentioned above, then decide if you want to order parts from the dealership or an online parts store..... pretty simple takes about 20 mins. I paid over 1100 becuz as i said in the post that is without taxes or shipping or paint or install..................... that was strictly parts........

What about on an 08 non sport?
My friend borrowed my G and got into a small accident that totaled my non sport bumper. Luckily no other damage.
Now I am trying to decide whether to stick with the non sport bumper, now it will be unique, or change to the newer non sport or possibly sport, I do like the fogs.
I am guessing the new designs come with side skirts also.
Is there anything else I would need to add to the list since mine is a non sport?

I am not sure about non sport cars, you will have to do your research on that. I am guessing it would work the same way. I mean its kind of a trial and error. I am not sure of to many people doing a bumper swap with the 2011 model bumpers so there is not much info on what works and what doesnt. I just took a chance and it worked.

Honestly, you dont even need the lower grilles...buy your own mesh online for far cheaper than the cost of Infiniti's grill, and it will look better if you get quality mesh.
478 bumper
170 right fog
170 left fog
100 washer tank
REAL cost is $918 + Tax + Shipping + Paint.

Great share man! Looking forward to pictures. What's your take on ordering aftermarket fog light assemblies? I wonder if Nissan actually makes the foglights or if someone like Hella or something makes them. Could be a lot cheaper ordering from the manufacturer.
I'm all for a $500 painted bumper. Screw a washer tank. I don't think I've used mine since I've had it lol.
