New Sedan owner!

I just got my G35 shortly after Christmas, kind of a present to myself! I need to clean her up and give her some wax then I can post pics, but right now she is a stock 2004 sedan. Besides the obvious first mods (I need tint, ipod, and intake), I have been lamenting over the front license plate slot. I've attached a pic of a car that is the same as mine that has clearly shows the area I am talking about on the front bumper. Is there an aftermarket product I can buy that will clip in there to fill it, or do I need to consider getting a new bumper (aka gfx kit). Thanks for any input or suggestions!

I can't help with the license plate but if you are looking for a kit go to KGS Engineering they have really good prices on body kits and shipping is cheaper than everythingG35.com

dont see the picture but welcome to the forum!!! the front hole can be covered with a bumper insert that should've came with the car...if you got the car used and may not have it you can always go to the dealership and order it! However, the front bumper is not as nice as the nismo (aero) front bumper and that's what you should get...

Had a hiccup, but got the pic attached now! Sorry about that! I am taking her for an oil change on Wednesday, so I will inquire about the bumper insert! Thanks! That will be a decent short term fix while I save some $$$.

Before you order your license plate cover, check the area around your spare tire.
I also hate the way they look with the license plate but unfortunately I live in communist California and recently got a no front plate ticket. Oh well for $10 fix it tickets. This one has cost me $145 so far and a lot of time standing in lines.

An excellent present considering my old car; a leaky 1992 Z24 Cavalier...big difference between the G and the Z lol.

I'll check out my spare tire area, as well as call the dealership I bought the car from to see if they have it. I doubt that they do though since the car originially came from a province that requires a front plate. Thanks guys!

Dealership wants $95CAN just for the bumper insert! Is there an aftermarket solution that isn't insanely priced? Can anyone beat this price?
