HMMM .Originally Posted by OCG35
I commend you (or anyone else) for efforts trying to achieve the look... I think frameless mesh with a chopped-up coupe grille is as close as it gets... it would be interesting to see what someone comes up with...
THATS NOT A BAD IDEA ...
IM STILL GOING TO TAPE OVER THE UPPER LOWER BARS WITH ELECTRICAL TAPE ..
PICS COMING SOON . LOLOL
Why do I bother to DIY???
That's my car w/ the ebay grille!
I think the problem is that w/ the 03-04 grills, the opening is smaller than the 05-06 grills (which were changed to better match the coupe's grill). I imagine this type of mod could be done, but you'll probably need a slightly smaller emblem. Also, I think there is quite a bit of room behind that mesh...so if you could extend the grill back all around, you could get that deep grill look.

looks good... I'm sick of my billet grille (even though its powder coated, I've never been thrilled with it)... what bumper is that? It look like it has OEM inserts in the lower valance, but I don’t think any post 04 bumpers (or inserts) fit ours?... Is it the nismo with OEM inserts? I’m not an expert on bumpers – may be it’s common, I’ve never research body mods much…Originally Posted by RocketG35

It is the Nismo/aero bumper, nothing special, so you can find it on everythingg35.com,grubbsinfiniti.com, etc. Any dealer-based website.
