In all honesty the outer grill shell and top bracket is a direct copy of E&G as they have perfect fitment, the face is exactly like TRENZ which I feel looks much better. my opinion.
Benefits with Our Grill,
Great Fitment*
Easier Install*
Better Price*
As far as the bolts, this will not be an issue on production.
Correct me if im wrong, but the Maxima grills are retailing for $225~
Our Altima Grill retails for $140~, essentially the same product, Jim can attest the finish on the outside is a flawless stainless steel chrome..

I have a twofold plan: #1 If my career path leads me to a lucrative position early I will keep the max until it is has no trade in value & buy a summer only 911...and if I cant go that route I will most likely trade it in 3 years from now for an E class or 5 series. I drove one 5 series and 3 E's before getting this car.
even a chrome one like this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...RK%3AMEWA%3AIT
(same no frame, but w/ logo cutout and hide the support bars)
I like the grill on e-bay, it matches my bottom grill. Later Warren

Even though its a rehash of the others if its built better and is cheaper then I might grab one.
My OEM grill looks like ****. Between the rocks chipping the chrome paint off and the black lettering on the Nissan emblem flaking off I am really starting to hate it. Love the car to death but thats the part that ticks me off the most about it.

That is the same grill I have and bought if from the same guy. Very sturdy and easy install, if you have a long screwdriver. I can personally vouch for this one.

Although still OEM, I have a new shiny grill, replaced under warranty for "peeling". It felt good to get a nice new set of teeth for the max!!!
I'd say it's worth it if you still have warranty left...

I had no grille for a week (bc I was painting the OEM, which chipped up and then i got the trenz) and at first I hated it, and than I thought, if it was more finished around the edges, and I even painted the nuts and bolts black on the hood latch. I think I liked the no grille look, in a sorta twisted way.
