Grill purchase

I found this grill on ebay, is it any good? Does anyone have this grill on their car. Give me some feedback.

quite a few people have this grill on their car, so I would say that it is a good grill, just depends on personal preference

I bought that same grill. Great grill for the money (looks wise) but...it whistles like CRAZY as you build up speed (and I really like to build up speed)...at least in my case.
I ended up having to put a screen in front of it to stop the resonance. I personally would stay away from this grill if I were you.

There are better looking, better built grilles out there. At $47 you will get what you pay for... I picked mine up over three years ago from prostreetlighting on eBay. Its made by B-Cool Billets. Very good quailty/finish. I believe it was around 175$ back then.

I think if you spend a little more you will be happy with the added quality

Yup, what he said. AT 4.1 looks the best, IMO. With or without the burger, you can't go wrong.

I plan to put a nice Nismo badge in the corner. I'll post a pick when it arrives and I get it on.

i placed an order for the trex billet grill a few days ago. it came out to be around 200 shipped. IMO you get what you paid for...that ebay grill looks a little cheap.

3M 2-sided Sticky Tape. Home Depot probably sells it. Just clean the back of your Nissan emblem very good and make sure the surface of the grill is free of grease, etc. An exacto knife will help you cut the tape to the right shape.

Agreed. But then again I kind of liked the stock grill too so who knows. I do have a SS grill I'm gonna install tomorrow though. My stock grill has scene better days

Dude, I Bought That Grille Off Ebay A Couple Months Back. And As Someone Already Said, It's Pretty Cheap. But It Must Be A Cheaper Material, B/c It Does Whistle Pretty Badly With Speed. So, I'd Stay Away If I Were You.
