New Grille??

New grille........
If you like what you find on another model why not just create it yourself?
Have the inside bars chromed black and leave everything else alone. That
would also save yourself some cash for your next mod, plus black chrome
will never pit.....no worries!

The TL TYPE S has a special dark finish on their grills to. I wonder if they have the same problem as INIFINITI? OH well anyways
HONDA
haha been wanting to use that one for a while now

As far as the grill goes.. I'll be looking into those grills from japan maybe they'll be available here when I finally get my G.. if not i'll lookin into blacking out the grill or getting a JDM Nissan grill to see if the quality is any better.

Hmm... possible group buy? I'm really liking the Impul Grille and have a possible shipper that is on a base so he could ship them as if he were in the states... anyone else interested?

I made a formal complaint to Infiniti corporate the other day from the road. After almost 18k miles it's becoming so bad you can see it from a good distance.
I figure by 35k it'll look just like the brochure - all black! It's a feature!
*rolls eyes*
(in the last 18k miles i've had some real questions to myself about nissan fit and finish build quality - mechanically everything seems to work flawlessly, but they falter quite a bit on the cosmetics afaict)
