For 2008-2010, type A is the front bumper that comes on all non-sport coupes while the G37S sport model gets the type B front bumper

Then in 2011 they switched it all up and the type B bumper is standard and even includes foglight options for the smaller grilles on the sides of the front bumper, while the IPL/Aero bumper is what the sport coupes get

Someone correct me if I'm wrong

Stupid cell fone. What I meant to say was in 2011 they actually have a sport bumper which is in my profile pic and comes on the 2011 sport. The aero bumper comes only with the aero pkg which is about 4 grand extra. All the coupe bumpers can be swapped....

You can get the new aero bumper from your local dealership or websites that sell oem parts such as orderinfinitiparts.com
