Any one with Ivory Pearl plan on doing this bumper swap, I'm really on the fence since I have never really seen how the bumper would look on my car.

I had a 3M clear bra installed on my Corvette for $550 bucks, that was for 21 inches of coverage on the hood and fenders, complete front bumper, mirrors, and partial 1/4 panels. It looked amazing. Now well looking to buy this bumper, I find myself worried about my clear bra being wasted that's already on my G37 from the dealer. I found this cheap DIY kit on ebay for like $40 shipped for a complete kit.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Clear-Bra-Pr...item20beb18d05

It's A LOT less then $550 lol, but I'm sure its not as good quality as 3M either. They have over 60,000 customers with a 98% positive rating on ebay, I wonder if we should try this for our new bumpers? Worst case scenerio we lose out on $40 if the kit sucks, but if it works good that's a huge savings, especially if it protects our bumpers from the cheap infiniti paint chipping off.

$80 shipped to your door.
I was talking to Brad and he said that this part number is for a 2008 with a sports bumper , he wasn`t sure how it would fit but he thinks that it`s the closest fitting one , better than 62278-1NL1A.

Who's the last OB in line and what number are you? I just got my email today saying I was in line, and that he just received a shipment of some OB bumpers so I shouldn't be too far in line.

I don't know what number I am for OB also, but Brad call me during the beginning of the month and said I should expect to receive it by the end of the month. Hopefully this is true.
