No it's not... It was an S4 grill but I didn't like the shape so I just used the black grill as a background. The shape and designed were completely fabricated.

Well yes, but the effect is supposed to be that the bumper goes into the grill area and the grill is set back. Like the R32 Skylines IIRC...

I played with this pic for a few hours...after a lot of experimentation, I conclude that the stock type shape of the grill would still look best.

As you can see, the reflections on either side of the sidemarkers are as close to the real thing as you can get. All of the edits on this pic were made by hand, even the grill frame next to each headlamp...I'm not really good with Photoshop, but since I had nothing else to do all day, might as well try to be artistic

Aaron, if you could fabricate a replica-type grill, with a dark black mesh in the middle, such as the Sentra SE-R's, I think it'll look great, and would compliment both your new sets of lights + the front facsia.

These Audi headlight assemblies come with the blinker already attached to headlight. So the blinkers that go into the bumper are just overkill. Can anybody Photoshop them out?

i personally like the way the bumper lights finish off the corners of the 4th gen bumper, but here it is w/o them.

That grill looks awesome with the S4 lights. That would be my choice so far in the contest.

I think this one looks the best. Too bad you have to keep the front tag on in New York.

I think this grille with a Nissan Logo or no logo would look great. Can do someone do that, and maybe another version with it a little darker. Has a very classy and yet aggressive look. Also, Aaron, if you smoke the factory turn signals, it looks great.

i like this one a lot, a maxima isnt like some truck where 100 different grilles might look good, IMO the stock "Nissan" one is the best, make a version of the G35s or the 97-99 Stock one

Looks like you boys caught the attention of the Audi group. They are all speculating that the headlights are stolen ... assuming we are all a bunch of stupid Honda kids with bad intentions.

Not making me want an Audi anymore ... I figured those guys might be a little more refined.
