As far as the washer bottle goes, I'm curious about exactly how much the original bottle interferes with the new bumper/fog. If it's just a little, I have had success (on a different car) in the past with using a heat-gun on the water battle to soften the plastic, and then slowly and carefully reforming it with a blunt object to gain some needed clearance. It worked great, gave me a few critical inches, was invisible to the outside, didn't change the volume of the bottle very much, and never leaked a drop. Just thought I'd toss that out as an option in case you're looking to save some dough.

I don't thing that bending it any way will work, cause Im pretty sure that the bottle is pretty tight against the bumper there! Not 100% sure but worth checking again indeed.
You know Kool I would have done this conversion in the first place when i was just building my car, but at that time it was impossible to find G37 parts and very expensive!!!

^ yeah that wouldve saved you some $$ in the long run but its still worth it imo, check your local junk yards or even online ones for the bottle im sure you can get one with the motor for the G37 around $60-80 from the yards given its $120 new... otherwise if you got the dough then might as well get the new one and be done with it!!
