I am about to buy a used 09 because the depreciation is a significant amount of money. However, the 2010 front bumper looks so nice and i was wondering if anyone could guess how much it would cost to buy the parts necessary to swap for an 09?

I read that the grill, headlights, and bumper were different on a review. The fogs are now placed inside the bumper ducts. However the headlights and grill seem to look the same size to me and i'm not 100% sure if they would need to be replaced or not.

Secondly, does anyone know of a site that sells oem products such as bumpers for less than a dealer would charge?

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Headlights are the same. But expect to pay around 3k for bumper, inserts, grill, fogs, and paint.

 

riverside infiniti

there a dealer but a well priced dealer. I get all my oem stuff from there.

09 headlights fogs are in the head light housing... so remove them or keep them in and add another set of fogs to the lower bumper.

or buy 2010 headlights and fogs to create a 2010 bumper look. ( fog light wire will need to be extended)

all that for fogs...is it really worth it.

 

All you need is the headlights, bumper, grille and fogs. Prob looking at around 3k.

 

you say i do need the new head light

you say i don't need the new head light


who is right?

 

EDIT...


you'll need new headlights

 

eh not worth it just for a nicer look up front, ill just buy a front lip and get my headlights done by 180

 

I agree with this. I don't think it is worth it. You can get some nice wheels for 3k, or a BBK, or plenty of other mods.

 

damn I want to see this 2010 front bumper... maybe the changes are so subtle that i'm missing them, but I can't seem to find pictures on the infiniti website that look different

 

All of Infiniti's marketing materials including their website have been updated with images of the 2010 G. You can tell the 2010 sedan from the 2009 by looking for the fog lights in the bumper.

 

I thought 180 didn't do sedan headlights?

 

what you be smokin. of course we do sedan headlights. we dont do Ironman on the sedan, the projector shroud isnt big enough. but we can paint and do other led mods. check our threads.

If you cant tell the difference from the 2010 sedan to the 07-09 you need glasses lol The headlights, bumper, and grille are completely different.

New sedan

 

If youre truly interested, PM da mayor (kenny) and he can give you the prices on all the parts.

 

your 2009 G will look outdated, especially at night time



these are the 2 new front bumpers for the 2010 G sedan

(2010)
(2009)
at night it also lights up completely different from your 2009 sedan
(2009)

dealers don't have a huge mark up on the parts but will vary from dealer to dealer. no one has tried it to see what parts are completely swapable but the headlights alone are 60% of the pricing.

2009 rear shot


2010 rear shot

 

The 2010 has different shaped fenders as well. Adds about $1200-1400 (that includes paint labor) on to the price. Total would run you about $4000-$4200, $5000 (all prices including paint labor) if you wanted to do the rear bumper too.
