Wait, so 1300.00 otd, does that include paint?? And I would suggest the stillen plate holder that screws into the tow hook,just keep it in the trunk just in case.... Did you or anybody research the cost of ts full bumper in comparison??? Good job again!!

yes it included paint. I received a deal from my buddy at the shop but not too much of a deal. Good Idea on the stillen plate, also isnt there a plate that is automiatic that hides??? Yes I looked at the ts bumper but decided to go a different direction, I have some more plans in the making over the next month or so. I also love my splitter for some reason and Iam gunna make it work on this bumper as long s it doesnt look stupid. Infiniti actually sells the IPL bumper painted for 478. There are cheaper ways of doing this than the way I did it, but I just wanted everything to be perfect.

Was it a direct swap or was any adjustment needed? Not sure if the Stillen splitter would fit, but it would look bad *** on this wrapped in CF. I just gave myself an idea

Paint looks like it's factory paint, great job most paint jobs have slight different hue.

Yes it is a direct fit, the only thing is the washer fluid tank needs to be switched to be able to fit the fogs in. When I first got the bumper i took my splitter off and tried to fit it on there and it was surprisingly close fit. But I am going to try and custom fit it on maybe have to change some curves in it. we will have to see

Yurp, I went the expensive route. There are a couple ways you can do it cheaper like making your own lowers grilles, buying aftermarket fogs,ect. if you know how, you can even install everything yourself once its painted. You can get the IPL bumper for 478 from infiniti that comes painted. Lots of options.

I know right, took me a while, but I think the bumper needs to be lowered to look decent.
