Cool - thanks for sharing the info rocket! I'm interested in seeing the pics - I'll check back tomorrow. Do you know if the eBay seller has these grills to fit the '05 and '06 sedans as well?

Sorry I don't know if they have 05/06 ones...I just checked their other listings...and they don't have any G35 stuff...only a Focus grill currently for sale.

I still have my UTR sedan grille for sale in the marketplace. I also have a black chrome 350GT emblem that would look awesome on it.

eBay Grill

Here's a bad pic of the grill I got off eBay. Fitment isn't too bad..not perfect, but not bad...and as mentioned, the bottom clips are a plus. There are some gaps (how does this compare to the UT one?), but I don't think its too bad. Will decide how good it is after I get it painted next week!

Sorry...it was too late to get good pics of it off the car so that you can judge the quality. I'll make sure to post pics of the backside and also in the daylight.

Looks good Grant!! I definitely like the fitment better then that of the UT one.

Can you take a pic of the entire front of the car? I wanna see how it flows with the Nismo front bumper.

I don't think these grills really cheapen the car, as long as the fitment is good. It definitely gives a more sporty appearance.

i dont know if i would call it better than the UT one. it's hard to tell from the pictures, but take some pics of the hood/side/bottom gaps. i ended up using double stick tape on the bottom and sides to get rid of my gaps.

I would not say that fits better than the UTR one. Mine didn't have any gaps like that does.

I think the pic angle and the flash makes the gaps more prominent...when seen in person, it definitely doesn't appear to have as many gaps. The bottom is fairly flush w/o any tape. I think also the difference in sliver vs. black makes the gaps more prominent..as opposed to just being all black.

I'll try to snap more pics in a bit to see what people think.

Yeah that lower gap is strange on some of them.

I tried mine back on without the 3M tape and it fits great with no tape.
