Here is a pic before grill is in place:


Here are after pics with lower grill in place:




Let me know what you think?

Thanks guys. The lower grill was $67 from Stillen and cost $75 to powdercoat. It may seem expensive to powdercoat, but there will be no chipping. If I had powdercoated both grills at once, it would have been cheaper. It only took a couple hours to do. I liked the quick service. Now I have to engineer a solid way to attach it.

Great job, I really like the look, after RedLineMax installs my body kit, I may also use black grills vice chrome for a more agressive look...

Powdercoating was done in Ontario, California at a place called Alumin-Art. PM me for telephone number. They do a great job and they do it very very quickly. Both times, it took a couple hours. Its the only way to fly.

The speed grill just might be the way I might go, it's seems to me to be the best looking option out there for the price...Wakkus are you going to add the burger or not?

And what color do you think I should go with? I think blk would look good to match my lower area...but chrome would match the wheels. Maybe to bling blingy though!!!

Hey I already bought the burger, but I'm still looking for a way to secure it to the grille without damaging it. This grille is just too expensive to ruin....
Didn't have a chance before because I was on vacation in sunny Fla. And let me tell you, I missed my Max sooo much! I spent the past 2 weeks driving a 2005 Grand Caravan (I'll call it the silver cow from now on...no more comments) and a 2004 Hemi RAM. The pickup is strong as hell, but the tranny's response is so slow compared with my Maximus. Today I just made up an excuse to drive my car for about an hour, and now I feel alive again.

Deus, or anyone with a street scene grill like his. When you order from Stillen does it come with the burger emblem? I don't want the emblem but noticed on the Stillen website they have two street scene grills and both are pictured with the emblem. From what I read on this forum it appears that the grill comes WITHOUT an emblem but wanted your help in clarifying. Thanks in advance to anyone who maybe able to help out.

jsmith- I have the chrome grille. I dont think its too bling


its just the grille alone, no nissan logo. you need to purchase that seperately.




the emblem I have is part number 65890-5Z000

you can get it from here:

Pal you are probably right but I think the blk will look more played down than chrome, I already have the chrome rims and I'm not really a chrome bling bling guy...blk would contrast nicely.
We'll see, brakes are first though!!
