anyone know how to make a custom gril?

my friend just made a custom grill for his 3.2 cl type s and its pimp, and he made it himself using the parts from home depot, and im trying to do the same thing, but im not sure on how to take it apart, and what exactly to do. his car was a lot easier to take apart, but i dont know what to do for the maxima, if anyone has done it, or knows where i can go to find out please let me know.

anyone thats intrested in a custom mesh grille for a 95 or 96 maxima can email me for pics at kctyphoon@aol.com.. ive made a couple before, mabye if theres enough people intrested ill make some more.. this inst just gutter mesh cut out and zip-tied over the old one. this is an entirely new grille for you car fabricated using your stock grille. the good thing about that is it comes back to you without you having to get it painted like if you were to buy the stillen smx grille..90% of the original plastic honeycomb is cut out and replaced with mesh. this can eliminate your front emblem if you choose to or it can me mounted back on. the quality can be easily seen and looks much better up close than just doing a layover. this grille is hand made and looks factory. but like i said, if you intrested email me for pics.. make sure you write grille in the subject so i dont delete it by accident. i spend anywhere from 9 to 12 hours making these and i feel the pictures speak for themselves..
