I just ordered direct from Infiniti this week $940 for the Aero front bumper in Graphite Shadow. I did not want to mess with getting painted. Added the fog light conversion kit (I have a 2012) plus shipping $1080 all in.

How do you deal with the paint absorption in the fiber? is it that bad as the warnings?

In the states our G37 doesn't comes with headlight washer and for the accident sensor you mean parking sensors?

$700 shipped you just have to repaint it, or have them repaint it for $300 extra

Replica...

Hopefully it works out for you.

Yeah, the horse is outta the barn on this but for future mods I have to agree with Ryne....unless you just have a lot of disposable $ and a ****load of patience, stay very close to OEM. Learned my lesson with a $200 rear deck aftermarket spoiler. Ending up selling then dropping (at the time) $500ish on the OEM spoiler. Issue solved. Good luck!

I had my local Infiniti dealer price match with this dealer in socal:
Infiniti Parts Warehouse | Genuine Infiniti Parts | Infiniti Wholesale Parts

Got the whole kit in factory paint and saved on shipping, maybe you can try the same.
