Right Hand Side Battery Cover From Grubbs?

Has anyone ordered this from Grubbs Infiniti?

For $39.99, that is much better than what StrictlyZ is selling for! but probably it will require cutting to fit.

yeah.. i believe it's just the kit that japanparts has always been selling.. only downfall is that it will require the cutting.. jus take a lot of precautions before you start cutting the metal..

I would cut the plastic, not the metal.
Also you will need various pop clips, plugs & a bracket

Re: Right Hand Side Battery Cover From Grubbs?

I emailed Grubbs to see if it's a direct fit. I haven't heard from them so, I'm assuming you have to do some mod to make it fit...

Re: Right Hand Side Battery Cover From Grubbs?

That's because they have done it for you. They bring in the JDM product & modify it. They also include all the hardware.

That's why it's more money.
I normally do everything myself.....
But, on this one I went he easy route with Strickly Z

yup....no hassle cutting the cover. StrictlyZ's driver side battery cover is a direct bolt-on. Nice and clean!!!!

I installled the right side battery cover from Strictly Z in 15 minutes or less. It required a bit of clean up on the plastic where it was cut but it looks and fit OEM.

Worth the extra cost IMHO

From FA : <blockquote><font class="small">In reply to:</font><hr>

All of the covers, no matter where you buy them, have to be or already have been modified to fit a US car. We will modify them before they are shipped and I should point out that it is a complete kit that also includes the seal and the push pin clips.

<hr></blockquote>

I just ordered mine :-)

Re: Right Hand Side Battery Cover From Grubbs?

I read that too, I wonder why it's half the price?

I'll buy it in a second if it's as good as the SZ.

Re: Right Hand Side Battery Cover From Grubbs?

from the e-mail, it seems that they completely copied strictly z's kit..

Re: Right Hand Side Battery Cover From Grubbs?

Thanks for taking the plunge for us Will!

If the one from Grubbs is indeed a direct fit, then it is a great deal!
please let us know when you receive yours...

btw, those skyline kick plates sure look tempting also *droolz*
