Hey guys, I was just at HIN and saw some mods on a G35 that I really like.

The Greddy front bumper is one of them, I had always considered buying one, but wasnt sure since I don't have an intercooler. But this car had custom mesh on the bumper that looked really good. You can see this in the picture of the front end. I e-mailed UT and they said that it is imported from Japan and after powder coating and shipping it will be around $200. Do you guys think that the mesh is worth that much? I love it, but just not sure if I want to spend that much.

If i bought the bumper with the mesh, then I would also buy the UT grill with a Junction Produce logo for the front, as seen in the picture. The headlight covers would then come later.

So for my first purchase I would buy the Greddy front bumper ($550 before paint/install), UT grill ($260), custom mesh ($200) and Junction Produce Emblem ($60). Total after paint and install would probably come to around $1300.

My main question is do you guys think its worth it? Especially the mesh, thats a lot of money for mesh. Anyone know of any quality alternatives. I need some type of mesh there to fill the holes since I dont have an intercooler.

Thanks

are you the guy who drives the UT G35?

 

Mike needs to get rid of the Hello KITTY in his car!! :P

hahaha. i was wondering why there's a hello kitty doll there.

oh yeah, whatever happened to the UT front bumper?

 

Haha, the Hello Kitty Doll is actually from Junction Produce and the price tage is not cheap. We do not sell the Doll or the mesh grill due to its high price tag, was just for show purpose. Also we were lucky enough to bring home the BEST INFINITI and BEST VIP COUPE Trophies at this HIN Event.

 

congrats way to represent!

 

wtf happened to the UT bumper? that was going to be the best bumper available for an intercooler..

 

you can buy mesh right here in the good ol' US of A and paint it however and whatever color you want, please don't spend $200 importing mesh.

 

dude Mike, i told u stop paying the judges!!! its getting OLD!!! :P

Kidding..

great job MIKE..... congrats to UT also...

Great Job on the 2 wins.

 

Ya, I am glad to hear about the 2 wins, nice job, you deserved them too. I hope people arent thinking this is my car, I just saw it at HIN and thought I would post here. I don't think I am going to buy the mesh from Japan, just going to buy the greddy bumper and some domestic mesh, and stick with the stock grill.

Sorry for the confusion if you guys thought it was my car, but I just saw it and really liked some of the mods. Props to UT for the wins though, great job.

 

screw the mesh, get an intercooler

 

well mikestar.. The owner of that red g35 was Mike also.. And ur from the east coast... so we got confused a little bit...
