Grille replacements?

Where can I find some good grille replacements? Anyone have any pics? I'm leaning towards a honeycomb style.

What year is your Max? If it's 00-01, check www.custommaxima.com. If it's a 02-03, check www.grille-tech.com.

I'm also looking for a grille replacement for my 2k2 maxima. Has anyone got that 2k1 grille from www.custommaxima.com on a 2k2... and if not. Why can't it be done?

No. The 2000-2001 grill from custommaxima.com will NOT fit a 2002. I have worked directly with Street Scenes and Greg regarding this issue. I have taken detailed pictures of the grille in front of the 2002, and sent them to Street Scenes. I also talked to Greg last week after calling Street Scenes. There is a possibility that Street Scenes may manufacture a grill for the 2002-2003 max's, but I told them that I'd have Greg call and see what it would take. If you want to know the status of what Greg found out, email him @ greg@custommaxima.com and he can tell you what he found out. But for now, there is no grille available for the 2002-2003 max. Only the Valances are available, and only from Grille Tech.

Also, the valance for the 2000-2001 max doesn't even come close to working on a 2002-2003. On the 2000-2001 max, there is a single hole valance. On the 2002-2003, there are 2 sections, and the height is taller than the 2000-2001. The width of each section is shorter than the width of the 2000-2001, but the total combined length of both sections greatly exceeds the width of the valance for 2000-2001.

I know its only been like a week since the last post on this topic, but has anyone had any luck with finding something for the 2k2 grille?

What about the good old Home Depot grille - has anyone tackled the chore of making one for the main grille?

Valance Grille - any tips on making the pattern & cutting the Home Depot mesh for a frontal installation? Russ's instructions mound the mesh behind the vertical posts, I'd like to place them in the front...
