Thanks for the comments!

It's kind of hard to explain how I did it. First, I cut a piece of vinal and glued the middle of it to the door. Then, with a small flat bladed screw driver I "tucked" the edges into the crease around the insert. I made sure it was all the way into the crease. After that, I stuck a pen in the crease and drew a line. That line told me the correct shape and size the vinal pice had to be. I cut the vinal about 1/16" bigger than the line all the way around by only taking part of it out at a time. I made sure it fit perfectly and then without taking the whole vinal piece off, I glued part/half of the vinal piece to the door. I let it dry and then did the other half. That way I made sure the vinal would be lined up. I did come into a problem when the vinal had glue on it. It was really hard to tuck into the crease. I had to work my way around it with a screw driver. It took me a while to get the hang of it, but it was worth it.

I got the black vinal from a closet upstairs in my house. HAHA You could probably get it at JoAnne Fabrics or A.C. Moore.

I was thinking of doing that, but wouldn't it basically look the same as the stock grill? With or without the Nissan emblem.

Thanks for the compliments guys! I hope suspension will be comming soon. I'm hearing all types of noises and it feels really bad.

I have no idea. I bought the car with it on already. I'm guessing 35% or maybe a little lighter. I want darker! I might attemp to tint the front window myself with some AutoZone tints. Let's see how that will turn out.

Thanks for the compliment. Your car is clean too. I can't wait to get a suspension upgrade. Hopefully, I'll be able to do that soon. I'm working on exhuast right now.
