Stock grills sell between $50-$60

If you were to make this grill yourself you will be spending AT LEAST another $50 in just materials not to mention the amount of time it takes.

Plus at least another $50 to paint the grill(@ a shop) which this grill is, aerosol cans will prob. cost you about $15

so right there if you wanna make this grill yourself it would cost you at least $130, and thats doing it the cheap way(and prob. wouldn't look all that great)

$500 is insane, and i donno why he would list it at that price, but personally doing this mod. a reasonalble price would def. be between $200-$250

alot of guys here pay upwards of $150+ for a shiity fitment unpainted gialla grill

Ok ok ok guys... Stop with the madness... I know its a high price.. I just wanted to see the market reaction.. hahahaha.. I'll lower the price, but the prices that your coming up with are low too.. For the record the factory grille does not cost $50-60 from infiniti.. Plus, the customization work and paint is more than $200, if you get it done professionally.. I'm willing to lower the price to $350 OBO.. Ok.. that is fair..

hey man, having written the DIY on making these emblem-less grills as well as getting randy's (caskyline's) old pricing on his grills, your price is too high. someone may pay you $350, but that is definitely above market. As shane said, $200 to $250 is much more reasonable given the material costs, time involved to get decent results, and cost of getting it painted professionally / risk of effin' it up by painting it yourself. obviously there's a delta between making a grill yourself and buying one that is finished, but you need to keep it reasonable.

I worked on the DIY with Chris. +1 on what he says, need to come down in price. Sick grill though!
