Mossy Performance Grille

I kind of like the fact it has that vertical bar in the center, and the crest too.
I'm worried about the longevity of the piece. Should it last a long time? Even with the harsh salt filled Canadian winters here?

yeah. i was an avid hater of the 6th gen for a long time. i even went on the 6th gen pages and mouthed off here and there to spread the hate. and i got over that. i saw it in person and still hated it, but less. i finally realized that i hated the fronte grille perhaps most of all, as it made the whole front end look odd. i am glad they are making aftermarket grilles that at least are passable. the aftermarket grille shown here is still not quite there yet as it looks kind of slapped on, not integral enough. but it is in the ballpark.

often, innovative designs are too ahead of their time so they are rejected. then they are copied, accepted. and by the time the innovation is finally "ok" or cool, it is time to move on and leave the sheep behind. perhaps the maxima is an instance of that. the car does turn heads. "what the h*ll is that?!"
the 6th gen is cool from different angles. i generally like it. and i used to hate it totally. but i always will hate the stock bucktoothed grille thing. in a way it cutes up the car, but it is awkward. now they're putting it on sentras. (??)

The thing I disliked most about my 2000 SE was the steering wheel. It had a wide spoke that covered the area from the 4:00 position to the 5:00 position. That is exactly where I have kept my right hand since driving a Studebaker in 1949.
This was not a huge deal in driving around town. But on long trips, it was so very uncomfortable I usually let my wife do the driving. For a person who loves to drive, and has driven over two million miles in fifty-four years, that is a frustratingly sad situation.
The steering wheel on the '04 is a pleasure to hold. It is exactly perfect for me. As to the looks, I'm very happy with it. Looks fine, feels perfect.
As to the grill, that was also my least favorite part of the new Maxima, but I convinced myself I could grow to love it. But that was before I found it would be duplicated on all Nissan products. Seeing it on the Sentras lined up at the dealer last week was not a pleasant feeling . . .

lightonthehill,
mod the car. change the grille. on the 2k SE, you could change the steering wheel.
'49 Stude. don't know that one. have seen in person a '51 Stude. looked like aircraft fuselage. interesting car. have never seen post on the org by person aware of or old enough to have had a Stude.
rock on.
