What bumper is this?

I was looking at wheels and came upon this 03 sedan on Work's site.

What bumper is this? I think it looks good and I like what they did with the corner lights.

I don't think it's the nismo unless they look different in other continents.. It looks alot like a coupe front to me.

Indeed I was wrong, was seeing it on a smaller cell screen when i replied to that lol

it doesnt look like it sits lower than the sides, maybe like 1/8th inch lower, and as far as that rear bumper, looks like the car just had the stock sides paint matched to the rest of the car, nothing changed

That's a JDM sedan. Note the shorty rear bumper and RHD. Prolly some crazy/cool front end only available overseas...

Some closeups:

Sure, why not? We put JDM stuff on ours and badge them Nissan 350GT.

But it's definitely a JDM car. Shorty rear bumper is a dead giveaway, even if the pic was mirrored (making it look like a RHD), but I dont think it is, given the "G35" badge on the back is still readable. Also, the doggy should be accurate to other than USDM. These came out in 02 over there.
Work wheels is out of Cali, so it could be an import fairly easily.

EDIT: But, as far as the front bumper goes, OP, it looks like a Nismo replica (for the 05-06) w/ some custom moulding done to it. Of course the obvious is the shaved and relocated side markers, but there should be an outline around the air ducts, plus it has mesh inside.

Actually, I think those are the JDM 05/06 tails.
The JDM 05/06's have the amber blinkers, but they're very subtle. Not nearly as yellow as the 03/04s.

Kinda hard to tell from the pic, but I think I'm seeing a bit of amber/gold in the top part.

Yeah I can't really tell from my phone, even downloaded the image and zoomed in

It's subtle....which I like. I'm really into body mods that look like they could have come that way from the factory.

I'd prefer oem 19's though
