A or B? Grille options. Please vote. Pictures inside.

Am having trouble deciding. The Nissan emblem looks a little more OEM and elgant but the NISMO emblem adds 5hp.

I'd probably say A, but move the Nismo to the lower right corner. And don't color match the grill, on light colored 6th gens it only looks decent in black.

B...

Color match the outside perimeter of the grill, but leave the mesh black.

Neither, just keep it simple and clean. You don't need an emblem on there for it to look good.

Thanks for all the input guys. I decided to use the nismo positioned further right and lower for now. When I get bored with that look ill just throw the nissan emb on there and when I get bored of that ill color match the grille, etc...

Both look good. I think B is a cleaner look with the rest of your car. I'm also considering painting mine.

Someone started a thread about your car on http://my6thgen.org/f11/04-maxima-22...twisted-13873/ your famous. You should join the other site too. Mostly I think they liked your ride. Looks good to me.
