Talking new IPL Aero bumper and sides install - Big thank you

First and foremost I just want to thank everyone on this forum for their posts and big help with my project. Also a big thank you to James from OC Infiniti.I finally installed my new IPL bumper and sides with the help of the 170 or so posts. I am still not sure about the fogs, will decide later.

Just want to share the appreciation of another satisfied customer with some quick cell phone pics. Will take better pics once I have the car all clean.

Next upgrade will be the wheels but I cannot decide between square 19x9.5 stance (they're almost as concave as the 20x10 ) or vossen 20x9F and 20x10.5R

Looks great! I too went through James at OC Infiniti! Great service! In my personal opinion Stance and Vossen are sooooo over done on the G, some nice bronze or Mag blue Volk RE30's would look great, there are so many other wheel options, but to each their own, at the end of the day it's what makes you happy lol keep up the good work!

Looks great man. Like you, I have the blues late and I'm debating on whether I should leave the fog rings chrome or make them black or try black chrome. I'm leaning towards black chrome because unfortunately with the blue slate I don't think it pulls off black accessories very well for some reason so I'm at a loss with the headlights and grille and fog trim.

Thank you all. I agree with you TwoThree, black accessories do not really go with blue slate. I really think the grill done black chrome but with outside lining left as chrome would really match up with the chrome fog rings, especially with silver machined wheels with Chrome Stainless Steel Lip. At least that is the way I am leaning.

Same here, I'm a fan of the Vossens as far as wheels go, I'm not sure what I want, thinking about the CV2s but whatever I get it has to be machined faces like you said.

Your ride looks great. I agree Vossens are all over this forum but Im running CV2's and have yet to see another G in my area with ANY vossens. I know they are around in Dallas but havent seen one yet
Question on the IPL side skirts, Do you know if they are lower to the ground then stocks?

Thank you. I know they're all over the forum, but the way I look at it is that there are only a handful of G owners in all of North America that actually go on this forum and they would actually be enthusuasts like us, so I don't see them a popular choice for the masses. I am in Toronto and so far only saw one black g37 with graphite CV3s in the past yea. Regarding the height, it is ever so slightly lower, the only thing is that they stick out to the side more. The first few time I kep on hitting them with my shoe while getting out of the car. But after a few times you'd get used to it.

If you don't mind me asking dagon, I see in your sig that you have 20x9.5 on the front. If you don't mind me asking where did you get the 9.5s.

NP, $900 for bumper and sides shipped to Toronto, but I had to take care of my own brokerage... a bit of a headache but well worth it in savings....

I don't remember all part numbers, if read through the IPL bumper swap it's somewhere there...I think around page 70ish.....the lower grill is part of the entire bumper...
