1. Slim Washer Fluid Reservoir
2. Left and Right fog light assembly.

 

Wow that was quick, i appreciate it! some follow up questions if you don't mind,

1)why do i have to get the reservoir? not enough clearance?
2) I have fog lights in my headlight, what does this kit entail for fog light mods?

Thanks!

 

If you get the IPL bumper, you cannot have fog lights unless you have the Slim washer fluid because the stock washer fluid is too big.

 

gotcha thanks for the help!

 

I'm in the same boat as I recently picked up an IPL Aero front bumper but I have a 2008 as well with fog lights in my headlamps. For now, I'm leaning toward not wiring up the fogs and eventually try to get the anniversary edition cover and take out the fogs.

However, if you want to hook up the fog lights on the Aero bumper, member TVPostSound has a great DIY on how he hooked it up with a separate switch. A quick search in the DIY section will bring it up.

 

where's the rear bumper?

 

I got an 08 and had my headlight spliced with the fog lights. Now when my Auto turns on or when I manually turn it on the fogs come on with the head lights. Careful taking of your front bumper. You have these plastic L shaped stiffners that keep the bumper in nice and fastened that can snap of easily if you are to rough taking the bumper off. There are images on the forum that show the bumper sticking out because the stiffner clip snapped.

 

There's another thread from "Superteeth" about buying a bumper from Sewell.
See if his problem gets resolved before you dive in with them.

What color is your G, you can get all colors for $283, except for Black and White elsewhere.

Edit:
I just saw you had a white one, Superteeth is having an issue with a White Sewell bumper not matching.

Caveat Emptor

my G is diamond graphite

 

Well, I do not think that the issue was necessarily the dealership's fault, since theoretically they were not the ones that painted it. They did "force" Austin Infiniti to deal with the problem, though, since they are my local dealership.
Regardless, the issue was this, as explained by several people from body shops: Painting a plastic bumper is different than painting metal, somehow. (I would have thought that primer would have kept there from being differences....)

Pearl white is already hard enough to match, but when different substrates are used, the difference is even more obvious. The body shop guys pointed out that the same difference would be seen where plastic is adjacent to metal (for example, the rear bumper to the rear fenders), but it was not as extreme (which was why Austin Infiniti's body shop recommended blending the paint, hopefully under Infiniti's warranty). I even found it between the side skirts and the doors.

That said, depending on how good of an eye you have, you will probably be able to see a difference between the plastic bumper and the metal adjacent to it once you put the bumper on, regardless of the color. The mind is very powerful, and now that you know a difference exists, you will be able to see it no matter what you do.

I know that people with Moonlight White cars should, depending on the paint match from the factory, be able to see the difference on their clean car, especially with the dimming light of a sunset on their car.
