What the H*$$, $325!

I got a price quote from two Infiniti dealerships to install front sport lip and rear spoiler. The quotes were $300 and $325. WOW!

I guess I will be installing these myself.

Yep, that's about right. I think most goes to the rear spoiler installation, since there's drilling involved. Front is suppose to be easy. I ordered front and rear spoilers, as well. Only paying $50 to a body shop for the rear install because the car is in for other work. I'll do the front myself.

I installed the rear on our previous G and it was pretty easy. Just make sure you apply a little primer around the holes you drill to prevent rusting.

Thanks. I may have to check with a body shop too. I installed the spoilers on my last 3 cars, I may be doing a 4th.

Post pics after you install your spoilers.

thats not a bad price for both. Considering its dealer prices.

call Nissan dealer they might be cheaper.


Lip is an easy install. You dont even need all the supplied screws to have securely attached.

Most of the time is spent measuring for the rear spoiler install.

These are OEM spoilers. I purchased my spoilers from a local dealership because they sent me a 20% off coupon.
