Ah, and that's one of the main reasons why I still have it. You're not the first to dislike this grille, not even close.

It's not a very common grille because most people don't like the shape of it. Too small of an opening. Looks like fish lips they say. They either prefer the Gialla or OEM grilles.

The fact that I like it + most of this forum hates it = a much more rare part on my behalf. I can't count more than 10 people on this forum that have it. You may say, "And there's a reason for that. It's ugly." Well, as I said before...that only means that I'm going to have a more unique part. It also helps that not everyone wants to dish out the money for this grille, since there are no replicas. Only people who truly like it get it. I've seen several members purchase replica Gialla grilles only to find that they do not like it and sell it weeks later.

Thanks for your opinion. It is both appreciated and respected.

I still think the nismo bumper looks amazing on a silver car, but you have managed to keep a clean awesome looking G!

I was planning on getting the Nismo bumper again, but Eric is selling ~25 of them to local SoCal members...

That's way too many Nismo fronts in SoCal...so my search for a new bumper continues.

I think I'm 1 of 3 people that actually like this grille better than the gialla. I actually like the size of the opening better. Of course I dig the gialla too, but prefer this one.

Why dont you cop a KurumaZ then, I know many people have it, but its by far the best looking bumper there is for the G. Maybe some custom modification could set you apart from others

I live in the dorms at SDSU, which means I am stuck with having to drive through this one nasty driveway every time I leave/come back from campus. The beauty of my current setup is that, while the front and sides are not even, I have clearance for the road conditions that i drive in.

Perhaps next year, when I am free to park in other parking structures and can avoid the sh!tty driveway(s), then I will consider an after-market front. I've already got one in mind.

The Stillen with their front splitter makes it look much better:
