besides that picture being fake (obviously), i think its a plain old home depot grill, pre-cut to fit the maxima.

That looks nasty... I bought some Foila-Tec mesh grill in a speed shop around my work couple of months ago to install on my 93 SE-R, but since my SE-R has a big grill it would take 2 pieces for it to work..the kit comes with 2 pieces. I would have a line right down the middle of my grill where 2 pieces would match...I didn't want that so I just didn't install it. This Wed I bought a 01 Maxima GXE 5spd from the dealership I used to work for as a tech. I needed a daily drivers as my SE-R is getting little too uncomforable. Thursday I got the Maxima in the shop and installed the grill, it looks KILLER, way more agressive than anything. I am installing some AE headlights and AE chin spoiler on to make it look more agressive. I will take pics of my Maxie sitting next to its BIG brother the SE-R.

I spoke to the seller and he said he made it. The grill material is the small weave variety. The pictures show two version's of the grill material: one with large holes and the other with small holes. The picture is really a closeup of the weave.

I got the same mesh from Home depot for $3 and there was enough to make grills for 5 cars.. All you have to do is measure, cut, and glue it on and that's all...

I did it but unfortunately, I don't have pics... It looks pretty nice compared to that ebay pic....
Check out Home Depot or your local hardware store.... It's real easy.. Took me like 10 minutes.

I have a couple of quick questions:
What is the material called at Home Depot and How Do you attach it?

It's called a mesh and it's usually where they have all the fences & stuff... They sell a huge 12x6 ft(estimated) roll for about $3.00. You can use silicon or hot glue to attach it or if you're impatient like me, you can just shove it in and it'll stay....

Don't forget to clear coat it or it'll rust...
