i remember someone painted their's silver a while back, i forget how i liked that. i know it's difficult and/or pricey to chrome plastic, but i'm sure it can be done or done in a cheaper alternative way. i was thinking of buying a spare grill from another member and removing the black plastic and trying to paint that chrome, but not sure how it would look. i also know a ri member painted his white which looked pretty good. i have also considered this but am not really sure if i'd want white.

i have also heard of some local person painting their grill and it came out horrible, but maybe he was an idiot and i didn't see it personally.

any opinions or comments?

i'm just bored and avoiding a 5 page paper so i figured i'd post. thanks

 

I have a 96' pearl white gle. I painted it white and am very pleased. Everyone thinks it is a aftermarket grill until they see it right up close. I took of the nissan emblem painted the black part white and then put the emblem back on.
Did this about a year and a half ago, still looks great.

 

have any pics?

 

Why dont you just get the mesh? I tink its much easier and look nicer, but then agen dats ma 2 cents.

 

It was nymjayjay or something like that

 

i think mesh is kinda played out. just looking for something else i guess...not even sure if i'm gonna do it, just playing around with ideas.

 

wat color is your car? and do you plan on puting back da nissan sign?

 

pearl white, no plans for anything as of yet. maybe i'll go play with photoshop for a lil while and see what i can do.

 

It would look real nice. you should leave off da nissan burga on the front if you have da trunk shaved.

 

the front end looks bad with out anything on it IMO....i would leave the front nissan

 

fa some reason i tink da 95/96 looks betta with the trunk shaved than compared to the 97's and up

 

i was talking about front end, not the trunk, but alright. the trunk looks horrible with the nissan on it. i prefer just "maxima" or nothing on the back

 

lol sorry i thought u were talkin bout da bak

 

I also would like to see a picture of this.

 

new day bump.

 

are you talking about chromeing the mesh.. or the grill borders.. or the whole grill..

 

i meant the black plastic part. not the part body color on the top and sides; the black honeycombish part.

 

Someone has to have some, espiscally the guy who acutally did it
