^what he said. Also, if you bought at a reputable dealership tell them to match the bumper color, it's way off compare to the rest of the car.
Ps. Welcome to the forum!

looks like the car is salvage , front end collision so they might as well just changed the grille. You can tell the car has been hit because of how off the color is.

Ummmm NO!!! You guys need to look a little closer. You see the reflection of the floor/wall in the bumper. That's what creates the false "darker color". You also see it on the door but its clear that it's a reflection there. The front looks fine. The grill is UGLY tho. Run a carfax if you haven't...(And u should have BEFORE u committed to buy)

Carfax is clean and bumper is the same (reflection of floor). Also it might be raised cuz it did seem "bigger" for some reason. Bought it at Lexus and I LOVE the car. Thanks for your inputs guys I appreciate it

Congratulations on your new G37s.
I'm sure the front tire gap is normal. The angle of the photo and the shadow just gives the appearance of a bigger gap.

Thanks & I think it is just because of angles/lighting
