I always felt Paneraiguy did a good job with his non sport bumper.

I wanted to know, does that set up interfere with the sensor when using the cruise control anyone pls and tks in advance?

I believe it would because the LED strip goes right over where the intelligent cruise control sensor is on the non-sport bumpers.

Tks you very much for the reply, I have to say, I really like that set up versus the 2010 + fog light, guess I will have to wait after my warranty is up to do that mods on the car.

No problem, keep in mind that that bumper is off of a 2007-2009 G and not the 2010 G, and that putting a new bumper on your car wont void your warranty. If you do have a 2010+ G and want that bumper then it will require swapping more than just the bumper.

I was getting scared because my coworker told me if I do any mod's they will void the warranty.
I have the 09 g37xs and I love that setup in the picture but I didn't want the light to interfere with the sensor and it's a plus when I use the cruise control, guess I will try to get the lower lip and install it on mine on day make it look a little bit more aggressive.
