Info on this grille needed.



I'm getting my front lip installed. Meanwhile, I am interested in this setup, both top and bottom. Does anyone know where I can purchase this set?

I'd like to know also. It looks good! Only thing I would do is put the Nissan logo back on the grille.

the lower peice is from the 5th gens (00 maxima) lower grille, it don't fit perfect and needs some bending, but it works...

The lower grill does need to be adjusted to fit the Stillen front. Here is a pic of my front with Stillen lip and powdercoated black.

I was the first one to do the lower valence grill install, and it's been getting a lot of attention everywhere I go. Yep you have to tweak it a little to make it work, but the result is great... On the emblem, the speed grill is solid, but you can order a nissan hamburger (the one for the front end of our car) and then cut the hole using a dremel. Make it fit really tight and then finish it off with epoxy paste on the back of the emblem. It's not very difficult, I did it with the grill installed in the car!



Looking at Dues's pic now, it really looks like a stretched-out G35 coupe. Definitely better than the 4-door G35 available now....

After having the car for 3 months, I finally ordered mine on Saturday. Damn tooth was getting to me. Any work on how long it would take to be shipped delivered? Just curious, didnt see anything on my invoice.

Ordered Saturday, came in Thursday. 15 minute install and half of that was chasing my kid in the parking lot.

Just one question, the black plastic cover thats over the to of the factory grille (first thing you remove), does that go back on afterwards or it doesn't matter. Does it have a useful purpose? I was so excited to see my grille on, I forgot to look to see if I had any left over parts.

That is a good question. I'm wondering the same since I'll be installing my set next week (hopefully)

It is part of the factory grille, no need to install the black cover with the SSE grille...

Sort of on topic... but where is the best place to get a Stillen Lip? Other than directly through Stillen... I saw SCO has it, but was curious if there were any other options...

Thanks,
Kaz
