good deal on the sport lip. its not difficult to install, i had access to a 4-point lift, not sure if it would make it any easier. just make sure the bumper is prepped nice and clean before the adhesive touches it.

I just installed mine last weekend--fairly straight forward. PM me with your address if you want the installation instructions and templates, I'll send them to you.

www.infiniti-parts.com (part of Sewell Infiniti in Dallas) has the sport lip for $359.95 (plus tax but has free shipping). I just ordered my lip and rear deck spoiler from them. rear deck spoiler is $365 with free shipping there.

Think someone can post pics of the sport lip and bumber compared to the "x" lip? I'd like to see them side by side because 360$ sounds like a deal to me

^I think this is what you're asking for. g35x regular bumber and then with the sport lip. pictures aren't great but it gives you the idea.

I went to the dearler today just for kicks to ask how much it was for the lip, the guy that orders infiniti parts was out so this other guy helped me, I was thinking maybe i could bargain with them because of all these dealers you are all getting. He comes back and was like uhhh it's 350. I was like WHAT?! shipped and painted for the Sports lip?! and he was like uhh i'm pretty sure it's painted they asked for the color. So I asked him to write down the code for the part and also the price next to my name and number that they used to call me to pick up when it is there. I hope I get it for 350!!!

I like the crushed beer can in the install picture... this is definitely a requirement hahahaha.

Damn you guys all talking about a template and craziness... When I installed my lip I mounted the sides to see how it was supposed to sit, then got mounting tape, free hand made a line of it all the way across the bumper, and just stuck it on there... After it was pressed on pretty good I screwed all the mounting tabs down...

that's not a crushed beer can--there's no such thing at my house, jack and jim all the way...

btw if you didn't drill any holes how did you get the clips installed in the middle of the bumper? not sure that could have been done without hole sawing the 25mm access's.

I went on their site and I couldn't find the sport lip and spoiler for the price above, is there anyway you can provide the links to those two items? Thank you so much !
