Stillen SSE Main grill
I love this grill. For some reason I was focused on the Sarona grill and forgot abt this. Does anyone have this, and if so, do u have pics? Can someone photoshop this painted black and on a black Maxima?? PLEEEEZ???

Its funny, Pal, I have seen ur car dozens of tmes but for some dumb reason didnt notice the grill. It looks great. We seem to have the same taste. Have u thought abt painting it black? How do you like it. Was it easy to install?

I like the mesh grille. my friends have wanted me to paint it black...maybe I'll do it. the install took about 15 minutes, real easy.
yeah i might take the logo off as well and debadge her @$$ too!

u remove the original grille.
the damn genius' at nissan put duct tape on the bottom of the stock grille which is taped to the bumper, so be carefull when taking the stock grille off.
LOL, dude its -20 degrees with more snow on the way, who wants to do anything? I'm not in Cali where its like 90

Man it was double sided duct tape.
I like chrome and all... but for mesh on Onyx, I think black mesh would look 10x better. My Nissan pride would force me to get the emblem powder coated black too. Hotness.

I painted the OEM grille myself and it chipped to $hit so bad in just a few days i took it off and put a trenz grille on with an emblem. Maybe if i took the grille to a shop they'd paint it so its reliable? I put like 2 cans of clearcoat on the thing too, i was pretty dissapointed. Yeah, the Altima Active tuning grille is gorgeous, reminds me of something ive seen on an aftermarket VW golf grille. Knowing me ill prolly end up gettin sick of my chrome bling grille soon and getting whatevers out next that looks hot.

I'd imagine that the pic above is something that AT may come out with. I love what they have done with the grilles for the altima. The streetScene Grille doesn't look right imo. Just some mesh sorta floating there. I did that on my $9k 96 altima I had...I'm not putting that on my $30k maxima. Just looks cheap to me. I'll wait for AT

you are right, there is no trim around the grille. I'm so used to seeing the active tuning grille on altimas that when they come out for it for the max, it will look too much like an altima grille.
but IMO any grille is better than the stock one-

I wsas examining my fridnds Mercedes E55 which has a lowerr mesh grill and it has not trim either, but it looks great. It is also painted black. I think once the Street scene grill is painted black, it will sharpen it will be even better, IMHO.
