Nice!

Does the 2013 grille not come with the mesh behind the horizontal bars? Or did you remove it?

Why not paint the 2011 grille?

the 2013 doesn't have the mesh and the bars across have a different design as well as the frame is thicker on the sides.

love it dude, looks awesome.

Looks sweet

Would look even better if you painted the NISSAN the same grey color

I think it came out great. I think painting the grill gives the car a sportier more aggressive look.

I am going to take care of the flushness of it all. Those wheels are way to far inside the fender. They need to be pushed out or replaced!

the grile does look really nice. I do believe and agree that if it was to be painted all-black it would give the car a sportier and more aggressive look.

So the new 2013 grill fits right into a 2009 grille opening with no modifications? Cause I would consider changing mine out for the 2013

That looks great. It's amazing how something as simple as changing out a grill can change the entire look of the front of your car. I can't wait to see what else you have in planned.
