You could put an '05/'06 G35 bumper on an '03/'04 but you would also have to swap the headlights and hood.

A coupe bumper won't fit without swapping parts and modifying the front fenders.

The closest thing is what a lot of people refer to as a Nismo bumper which was part of the aero package on '03/'04 sedans. There are a few versions availabe from VIS and Baus Auto in fiberglass and polyurethane.

When you say swap out the head lights and hood does it just fit or do you actually have to change the core support for it to fit??? And when you talk about the Nismo bumper do you have a picture of it or know where i can see a picture of it??

thanks

for an 03-04 to fit an 05-06 you would need the following

new hood
new bumper with the 05-06 grill
new headlights

your 03-04 headlights will fit into the 05-06 bumper, but from what i heard, you will have major gaps. now i ask this... why would u want the 05-06 bumper when the 03-04 guys have so many options for aftermarket bumpers out there? talk to BausAuto, he is a vendor here and he will be happy to help you find the right bumper for you.

Well the reason i want the 05-06 bumper is because i like the way it looks it just gives it a clean look and it doesn't have that license plate hole in the front of the bumper like the 03-04 do. Thanks i will talk to BausAuto. But do you know if i change out the hood, lights, bumper does it just bolt right up?? Cuz i know most of the time when you change the front end you also have to change the radiator support as well to make everything fit right. and if thats the case than i rather not do that but if it bolts right up with no major modifications than if i cant find the right bumper i can start collecting the parts that i need to swap the front ends.

You are crazy. Put it this way... The 05-06 headlights cost 1k new. And maybe 500 used. That alone doesnt make this swap worth it. U would not need to change any other part than what i mentioned in my previous post. There are way better lookig bumpers for the 03-04 out there than the 05-06 bumper.
