What year/color is your car? If it's a 2011+up, I have a rear sports bumper for sale.

Boss Tan. The bumper without the sensor holes has no holes.. the one with the sensor holes has holes that are then filled with sensors and no longer has the clean flush look at the back but instead has little circular sensors in the bumpers.

The holes are proximity sensors. Does your current bumper have the sensor holes in the back? If so, then you'll need another bumper with the holes. Believe all rear bumpers 08+ are the same.

Also, I think it would look weird if you just had an IPL rear bumper but your front and sides weren't...just my opinion.

The 08-10 does not ocme with the sensors. The 2011+up do. They look the same expect for that change. You don't need to have the sensors to use the bumper. You can buy the insert on amazon and attach them to the bumper and it'll look fine. Also, I agree with OB G...unless you have the front IPL, do not get just the rear. You can make due without the side skirts, or having only the front but PLEASE don't attempt installing the rear only.

My 2010 S Coupe came WITH sensors, it's part of the Premium package.
I bought a black IPL bumper, it came with sensor holes.

As fo Aero/IPL rear bumper, the Aero does not, the IPL does.
So be careful how you ask for it.

Be careful with Sewell Infiniti, it's my belief that they are using Aero bumpers, not IPL, thus no sensor holes on the rear, and no fog light holes on the front.

@TV I Contacted both Sewell and OC and got a response from both... its kinda like a Crap shoot on getting ones with the Sensors. Told them both I need them. Though they said on the inside there are the marks to drill them out if they dont have them pre done..
I maybe savy on working on my car but I'd take it to them to punch the holes. One small screw up and buy another bumper...
though OC asks if you want fogs or no fogs on the front which I thought was cool.
I have the Sport bumper so fogs are not an issue yet the tank.
These two Vendors are great yet the quotes were close. But OC is near me and thinking of letting them just do the complete install just in case if the sensors.
Not sure on the Labor though ...?

Lastly on the front bumper, some yet both have different colors cheaper. I had asked one if I bought the different color that was cheaper then had it painted which still saves some $$$ would be cool right???
He broght up a good point that rock chips, scrapes, etc would show through eventually. So we all gotta ask ourselves do we save a few$$ or no worries on factory color yet warranty? Not sure of one is available though?
If I go that direction I'd still get my KH3 and either get the 3M applied or to the body shop to have the whole car Cleared thick...
Where I'm at...Dust dirt and rocks all the time. But try not to get behind people...

Just some added thoughts...

Boss Tan, what price did they quote you on the rear? If its not bad price and you need holes and you get a non-holed one I would be interested.

I would go the OC Infiniti route, if there's an order issue, James will make it right.
Get the OEM.



Check this out, James ordered a Blue Slate rear, no holes for a client. It came in KH3 with holes. James called me, and asked me if I wanted it. I ran down there and picked it up.
I install it, but was only driving it at night. I went to Super Car Sunday, it was a bright sunny morning. I get out of my car, and OMG, the bumper is Malbec Black!!!
I called James, he immediately ordered me a new one, and exchanged ot without issue.
