Yeah i agree wish the fog lights were down below to on the bumper but o well what can u do right.

WHat do you think about putting yellow fogs on or do u think its better with some HID fogs to match the headlights.

I love my Sport bumper, but I also agree that I like the separate fog lights like on the M below. Its strange because the Sentra, Altima, Maxima, and M all have separate fogs.

I really don't like the sport bumper (looks like a frowning face to me).

In fact, the front bumper was what pushed me to a non-sport. If the sport aero kit had been an option, I would have gotten the sport but with the standard front bumper.

That said, the new Kenstyle front lip completely changes the look of the sport bumper. I think the sport with the Kenstyle lip looks pretty good.

In a year or two when the 7AT or 7AT TT G35 Sedan comes out, I'll probably trade for a sport and get a lip or better yet, that Nissan concept front bumper. I love that thing.

I had the same delimina as you, but ended up going with the Sport. It's actually really growing on me and I wouldn't go back to consider the Journey bumper.

I LOVE this bumper!


But I like the sport bumper better than the journey, it's cleaner all around IMO.

I'd like some company to come up with fog lights that go in the two empty blank spots on the sides, kinda like a lexus, maybe even with yellow fogs, jdm style.

I would rather have someone see a "Mean G35" in their rear view mirror than a "Happy G35".

It looks a ton better with the sport bumper.

My personal preference

I don't see it as looking happy, but instead leaving it's prey cautiously optomistic. It works with the sleeper image of the sedan. I like it, but I own it so I should.

I dunno, I just think it looks like a coin slot in the middle with the journey bumper.

Sport/non-Sport... who cares!

The Tommy bumper is pure sex!
