What's George Forman got on your grill?! Grill pics wanted!
 
My grill is cracked and I'm looking for a replacement. Show off your front grill and where you got it and how much etc. Need something that looks good and subtle nothing too gangster.

Check sarona

A few options I am only aware of, not enough to populate a thread....

1. 97-99 Grill
see the last pic below #4.


1a. 97-99 Grill Debadged (Avail off of ebay)

2. 95-96 Grill

3. Nismo/Sarona Grill

4. The Landshark Grill (none at all lol).

(No grill on the left, stock 97-99 on the right, but painted)

Then once you choose your grill, paint it, vinyl it, whatever your mind leads you to....

You must realize one thing though, if you have 97+ and going to a 95-96 grill it will take a little bit of customization for it to fit, vice versa if u have a 95-96

Gamble Jan 2, 2011 05:01 PM

This is a lot less pictures than I expected lol

aackshun Jan 2, 2011 05:02 PM

See my previous post.

Gamble Jan 2, 2011 05:32 PM

Hmm they are all ugly. So stock it is I guess, just chrome or no chrome.

dub maxi Jan 2, 2011 05:32 PM

This is aackshun grill 97-99. Before paint. http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/...1-24113901.jpg

I will probably just looking at other options. Just seeing what's out there since this one is broke and it's a reason to change it :D

Yea I already looked for aftermarket ones but they were all ugly to me.

nafddur Jan 2, 2011 08:19 PM

I just painted the burger black, and then covered (wrapped) the whole grill with plastic screening.

nismomaxgtr18 Jan 2, 2011 08:28 PM

I had mine custom-shaved. Still gotta add mesh to mine. Oh theres also the Motostorm grille.

MaxJammin Jan 2, 2011 08:55 PM

My 95's grille, $8.00 ebay mesh kit, and some creativity, though i should have de-badged it...:mad:

ChrisMan287 Jan 2, 2011 09:13 PM

Eyy aackshun, did I say you could use a pic of my old CG2 4th gen? :slap: Just kidding.

Anyway, I've got something custom coming soon modeled after the badgeless Sarona one that's so expensive and it'll cost half as much to make.

cartman854 Jan 2, 2011 09:19 PM

myblzurchn Jan 3, 2011 07:52 AM

I agree just keep the stock grill and paint it.

mista0406 Jan 3, 2011 08:01 AM

I like the badgeless 97-99 grille but here's mine (look at sig) I custome fabricated this one from hacking a 97-99 grille

like everyone else said. stock 97 grill painted to your liking.

Gamble Jan 3, 2011 11:10 AM

Do they make one that looks stock w/o the spot for the emblem?

J RO 9 Jan 3, 2011 11:24 AM

Check post five, to see the grill with no emblem.

And those are OE headlights that have been painted

Found at the junkyard...funny thing is, the pegs line up perfectly with the holes in the grille for the burger, which has been missing since I bought the car

That looks pretty bad and out of place on that grill.

j-dawg Jan 5, 2011 08:17 AM

Yep.

Well, the angle doesn't help. I was taking the photo in the garage and the badge sticks out a fair amount. I was thinking of Dremeling grooves so it would fit nicer around the bar.

I mostly put it in there because I thought it was funny. My car's not winning any beauty contests. If I take it off, I've got some Peugeot 405 badges for my trunklid, which some d-bag de-badged.

toddemullins Jan 6, 2011 09:07 PM

Although most people would consider it not worth the time invested, I cut the surface from the center bar from my 97-99 grille leaving the vents behind it, plastic welded in the end pieces, and painted the grille. I'll have to post up some pictures tomorrow. I think it blends the best of the 95-96 and 97-99 grilles.

Are you kidding me? That's hands down best grill I've ever seen on any Nissan. Or any car.

Here's mine:

Was originally chrome. Spray painted black. Very simple mod that looks exceptionally good, IMO.
