G35 to G37 Front Sport Conversion! Jump in here!!!

UPDATE on Page 3 & 4 guys!

Guys, who ever did the G37 front end conversion on their G35. What exactly did you need? I know headlights, Grille, and front bumper is 100% lol
BUT I also heard that the front bumper absorber and the washer resavoir needs to be changed as well.

Can anyone confirm on this?

Who have done this in the past?

2500 gets you a nice lip, coilovers, exhaust. But it's your money.

Not unless you're settling for used headlights

if u have the money to spend then it would be worth it imo. The 10+ g37 sports front end with oem lip is sick and if you blackout the headlights it just looks great!

One guy did it over here on the west cost. If you buy the 2010 then you will need the new head lights to go w/ the bumper. I am pretty sure you guys seen B L U E S L A T E car.

Here's what I already have...

Well I already have all that lol. The whole reason why I want to do the conversion is because I want to refresh the front end of my G. Plus the G37 sedan sport bumper looks awesome and much more aggressive with the lip combined! And I always wanted to have independent proper fog lights in the bumper =)

Anyway speaking of the conversion... this is what I already have. Bought the used headlights, both in great condition for an awesome price. One for $262 shipped and the other for $275 shipped. I was actually looking on there for couple month now. Found these and jumped on it. If it wouldn't be for those headlights I don't think I would have gone for the conversion. Didn't really want to spend a fortune on this project.

Also found an awesome deal on the grille. Cost me $65 shipped. It's almost brand new apart from little scratches here and there, but don't care about that cause I'm going to repaint it black anyway.

Anyway I calculated how much the whole conversion might cost me and it shouldn't be over $1600, and that's with the lip already. Probably even less then $1600. Plus Im going to sell my old stuff of the car and make some $$$ back.
