I want a Diamond Cut lower-grille -- has to be aluminum so it doesn't rust. Suggestions?

Grilltech.com I got mine from them

He said he wanted one that wouldn't rust.

Arnold...check out the Street Scenes grille. I believe you can pick one up via Steve at SWA.

Street Scenes is really expensive. $150 is a bit too much. And they don't have any pics of their diamond cuts.


Edit: NM. I was looking at the wrong item for some reason. $65 is pretty good, actually. I need some pics.

Anybody have pics grille tech diamond cut installed? I have a can of clear coat I can use on it.

Arnold, PM Y2KSESteve at SWA. He may be able to get you a deal on the lower.

Here are two shots from two members cars with the SS grille...




Here is a link for search results under Street Scene.

wow.. it looks nice. How hard is it to install? Do you have to remove the bumper?

Those pics are from two other members cars. I don't know the details to installing the Street Scene lower grille.

looks nice!

The second pic is my car. The install is very easy: Just pull the pop tabs out of the splash guard for easy access behind the gril and put it in place. It has these clips that go behind it to keep it in place and they just slide right on. The in-box instructions will suffice.

Nice. Street Scene it is. Thanks guys!

i can do one for you.. that wont rust.. and i can powercoat any color you want too
20 bucks shipped

You serious? Got any pics of grille work you've done before?

can somebody please post up the websites that sell the street scenes grill?
thanks.

Arnold, where did u find it for $65?

See post #6 in this very thread.

I have diamond-cut black top & bottom from grille-tech

are these the same one sold at custommaxima.com?

The SS grill I think is the best...
I don't have any rust on mine at all...really holds up well in the winter time...

i want one of those bad. perhaps we can get a GD going????

I was looking at this grill from ebay.

What do you guys think?

you are better off with the home depot gutter guard...much cheaper

How are those grilles holding up? Chips? Rust?

Did ya clear coat em?

I think that looks like junk and you'd be better spending your money someplace else.

I put them on with no clearcoat or anything. Straight out of the box. This was in June of '03. So far absolutely no rust, chips, fading, anything! (knock on wood)

My car is garage kept 100% and i always dry the grill asap when i wash it. Maybe that has something to do with it.

What's the reason for this? Cheap material/rusting/etc?
please elaborate.

I like the steet scenes design better, but these are inexpensive.

Go with the Street Scene's Lower Valence Grille. I have had mine on my Maxima for almost two years now. It looks real nice, is not hard installed, but I suggest using zip-ties, instead of the black clips that come with the valence grille.

I would stay away from Grille-Tech products. Never heard anything good about them, and I don't think they look that good. They look cheap. The Street Scene's is good quality and looks sharp. I would spray one or two clear coats on the Street Scene before installing it. That was my only mistake. After two years, I am just discovering signs of rust on the bottom, not visible.
