Ok so I've been doing some digging around and I'm finding that for the side skirts, bumper, washer assembly it is coming out to $905.98 in parts alone from orderinfinitiparts.com. Shipping will be extra and if shipping across the border + taxes at the border... not so fun. I'm getting shipping quotes of anywhere from $300-500 for residential delivery and that won't include the nice brocker fees that shipping companies charge.
I sent out some feelers to infiniti dealerships close to the border and did get back a reply which is not bad. $934.10 for the parts. Only about $30 more dealing with them than the website but I'm sure there will be tax ontop whereas there is no tax being listed on the website. It would take me two tanks of fuel to get to the dealership and back again. $120 and then tax at the border.
So how I see it is:
website $905 + shipping $300-??? + broker fees/border tax ???? = ???
infiniti dealerhship $934.10(+tax) + $120 fuel + border tax = ???
Right now I am leaning towards the dealership as it is closer if there are any problems, I get a road trip out of it, and there is no shipping hassle for damage as some have reported in that thread.

Update again
So I put the order in with the dealership just across the border. $934.10 and no tax since I am an out of state buyer. The border will hit me with something I'm sure but other than that, $934.10 + gas + wicked road trip + border fees. Well worth it!

$339 for the bumper and $119 for the washer bottle. the sideskirts were priced lower than the website which brought the difference within $30. i have confirmed the parts have arrived and are blemish free. i go pick them up Tuesday. tax free from thrown dealership and hopefully a lazy border guard who won't make me declare them and pay tax

Hi Simon, i am actually on the wesrcoast but jumped into this thread to give the link to the larger ipl bumper thread. i am not yet home as i have been visiting friends on my road trip back but i am happy to say kirkland infiniti was awesome. friendly dealership and price matched as best they could so they got my vote. bumper and side skirts are flawless black obsidian paint. came with the lower gills etc. paid no tax and had to resort to flashing some govt law enforcement credentials to the border folk to have them ignore the large body parts in the car lol. it would have been about $115 in taxes. well worth the road trip. i will upload a picture when i get home tomorrow.
Here is the quick pic I just snapped with my camera. I'm going to get rid of the chrome around the foglights (not too visible in this pic). I left the sideskirts wrapped up.
