What are you looking for? The only Nismo stuff we can buy are general items that can be used on multiple nissans (radiator cap, oil cap, etc). Courtesy Nissan and Customaxima carry a few items.

You get UK grilles and corners from the UK . They aren't Nismo products. Awsm66 can also tint your clear corners, UK style, for much less money. Just read through the stickies and other threads, there are plenty of companies that offer products for the 3rd gen.

no...if it were that easy there would be UK grilles and corners on most maximas on here.

The only way to get them is to know someone in the UK that can find some parts at a junk yard. The 3rd gen was not a real popular car in the UK so its not like they are on every corner over there.


You can buy the corners new from a UK dealer (or maybe even a US dealer if you can get the part number to cross reference) but I think they are around $200 a piece or so.

I charge $40 including shipping back to you to tint them. I dont use a tint spray but actual automotive clear coat that I mix with a blend of colors to get close to the UK look. Its not exact but closer than anything else you will find.

Here is a pic of some I did on my old GXE:





Those are actually a tad darker than what I normally do them because I was playing with the mixture.

if your interested then click my name (in my sig) to email me.

does it matter what the name brand is as long as it works good? I couldn't give a sh*t if I had a part on my car that was named calsonic or otto, as long as it works.

I'm trying to find a 150-160 degree thermostat for the 3rd gen. If anybody knows where I can get one, please tell me.

The only one that I can find is a $60 Nismo 150 Tstat. I might have to shell out the money for it.
