That definitely was not my experience. He shipped out my stuff the next day and the grill and filters I ordered were packaged up extremely well.

Thanks! I guess that's not too bad. I wonder if you can pay more for one made in steel and not plastic... but one that looks like stock?

Hey MrClowny
You dont need a steel grill, you just need a good strong clearcoat over the plastic chrome. I think it's a quality control problem for Nissan, Later

Nissan needs to make a HIGHER quality chrome grill. That's the bottom line because stone cold said so, jk.
