6.5 Gen Mesh Grill (Good Pics)
My grill just arrived today from China....

It took a little over 3 weeks for delievery but it was worth it.

I bought the grill here:
http://www.ioffer.com/i/Nissan-Maxim...rille-90917051

The grill feels strong and durable. However it can be scratched easily.

The grill comes with a black matte finish and is perfect for painting.

More car and grill pics on my cardomain page.

yours looks good, I remember when someone first spotted the cheapo one on ebay, it had a bow in the middle of the top fiberglass and made it look weird, yours looks straight across the top, and looks good.

i think you are confusing the AT with mine... the AT has the slight bow in the middle near the top ...

Paint it for sure... i would do black for two reasons, 1. it will flow w/ the tint very well... 2. when you want to sell it , yuo can sell it to any color max since black goes very well w/ any color

and the cali meet sounds great

Hey thanks for posting, I ordered the same one a few days ago and am awaiting arrival. This is going to go on my black 07 SE. After seeing your pics, i am alot more confident in my purchase. Any opinions on if it should be painted or left raw when mounting on a black car?

Was install easy for this? was it a simple couple of bolts, then drill pilot holes into the new ones, or did you have to take off the bumper or anything? Also, it looks like yo u did some drilling in the pics - did you drill new holes in the car, or was that just trough the grill?

Thanks!

I wouldnt paint it just because it flows with the pieces around the fogs.. Maybe some front end shots would put this to end...
