Have you guys ever seen this grille before??

Looks like the car is ready to bite you or something, and the tooth is still there.... Who would buy something like that???

It's called the MAXIMA JDM BLACK/CHROME SPORT FRONT HOOD GRILLE.
We have to give them points for their creativity though. I though there couldn't be an uglier grill than the factory one! Wonder how it would look on the car...

I'm usually try to be positive when somebody posts a mod, but that really looks ugly IMHO. That rounded black tooth reminds me of Batman's "****-piece".

That's the most rediculous thing I've heard. You ever heard of a company called Strut? You ever seen a CTS-V or STS-V? Plenty high end cars rock mesh grills.

I concur. I prefer the mesh grilles to the billet ones for the Max. They look classier.

You know what it is if its just mesh then its ugly but if it has the nissan logo on it then it looks ok. around where I live I see these civics with big ironing boards and mesh grills

Nope, the stillen body kit doesn't come painted. And it's some kind of rubber, not fiberglass, so the paint is a little pricier than the normal car paint. More elastic.

Thanks, I think the front end of my car just needs one thing: paint the interior headlight smoke. I just don't have the ba**s to open the headlights.
