I have a 2010 g37x, since i drive in the winter ive noticed a fair amount of rock chips on the bumper, so ive been thinking that i would buy a sport bumper and get it painted and then when the winter comes just use the old g37x bumper.

Infinitipartsusa sells a sport bumper for around 260 without shipping and about 1000 for the aero kit bumper which comes painted

How much does it cost to get a front bumper painted? i like the look of the aero (though most dont) but i dont like it for 1000 dollars...

the IPL bumper comes painted for 478, it should cost around 150 or so to paint the front bumper. I just ordered my bumper last week it costs around 240 for shipping unless you have it shipped to a business then it will cost less.

^^ where did you find it for only 478? infinitiparts USA says over 1000 for the aero kit front bumper

Its just the bumper cover, its 478 painted from the dealership, or 283 from a parts dealer. I am pretty sure that if you order the aero kit bumper it comes with the compenents, fogs, ect i bought the 2011 sports bumper not painted, lower grille and 2 side grilles, washer fluid tank, and fog lights.

just call a dealership and get the part number, make sure to ask for the bumper cover for the IPL hold on I think i have the part number for it

ill call my dealer, dealerships in canada charge way more then those in the states. for exmple paddle shifters from river side are 250 (275 with shipping). From ericksen infiniti they are 550ish dollars...

I just dropped a new bumper off at my shop this morning and they are charging me $350 for paint/wetsand/clearcoating

what bumper did you get?

TO have it painted at a body shop will range from $300 to $700 depending on the shop. Always remember you get what you pay for. Although some may get lucky with a $300 paint job, there will be some that constantly have to go back because of the poor workmanship...

I had a sports bumper with the TS lip and I traded with someone for the sports bumper with the TS lip molded on.

I completely agree with you get what you pay for. Thankfully I also know the body shop I go to does good work and they stand behind everything they do with a lifetime warranty

You could also go to your local paint store and get a quart of the paint code you need for your car. I've always been told to take the car to them and make sure they match it also (the right blend). That could save you some money...

Yeah for colors like white and pearlesents, that's a good idea but for OB its really way more trouble than it's worth
