I'm installing the Stillen Gen 3 and I'm having a very hard time taking off the front bumper for the G sedan. I need your help with it. Is it the same as the coupe or is there extra bolts i need to take off? I took off the radiator cover and all the plastic tabs along the liner, and i took off two 10mm screws on the side where it connects to the bumper. I pulled really hard on it and it's not coming out. Please advise. Thanks.

You can install the Gen3 without removing the bumper you know.

Once the bolts are loose from the fenders are out it just snaps out. I was weary when i tried to take mine out too but there are clips that hold it in under the headlights....just give it a good tug once the bolts are loose and it will pop off.

Yeah, you can definitely install w/o removing the bumper. Check this out...

Actually, "Mishmosh," is that your video???

I had the Gen 3 intake installed on my 2009 GxS today....but I had the dealer install it as a) power tools hate me and b) having the Infiniti dealership install it guaranteed that the warranty wouldn't be voided.

Good luck!

Is this true because it's a Stillen part? Are they only warrantying their work or work + downstream parts as well (engine, clutch, tranny, etc)?

Well I figured out how to take out the front bumper. And this is for the next guy that asks this question, there are in total three bolts that connect the bumper to each fender. One bolt is on top near the headlight, you have to pull up the plastic cover on the fender to see the bolt. Two bolts are under the wheel well, one is very deep inside. I wanted to take the bumper off so I could have more room to cut up the holes. And I did it very well, very little cutting and the intakes do not move at all. What I did was I dremel the circle the size of the small side of the pipe and just stick it in from the front. I took pics but I don't know how to post them.

Infiniti caint void your warranty unless the problem is caused by the intake which has to be proved.

OTher then that they can not void anything...
