new grill for 2000 i30?

I dont like my grill on my i30t, and I was wondering if I could change my grill to the newer grills of the i35's?

Umm... The Dealer.? I assume you mean the I35 grill. Sometimes people on the org will sell them too.

I will find out how much Infiniti wants for them, hopefully today or tomorrow.

You'll have to contact Mr SyCefiro about that one. I don't think anything is available yet...not in that style.

I just recently bought the grill posted above from www.paradox-systems.com $75

I like the style, but the fittmet could be better. It is not a direct bolt-on. You have to do some grinding so the bolts will fit.

I may be buying an I35 grill soon, so I might be able to part with the paradox grill. Although I was kind of looking forward to having the worlds largest collection of A33 grills.

If you are interested, you could PM me and maybe we could figure something out. If you like I can E-mail you some pics. The picture on the paradox site isnt very good.

You can get the I35 grill from any dealer. Its going to run you about $220 though. The grill is one part and then the Infiniti emblem is another part. Make sure you get both. Check on ebay, you MAY get lucky. If not, your best bet is a dealer but of course, they are quite expensive. I did the I35 grill on my 2001 I30t and it makes the car look 1,000 times better. Its a simple install. Definitely a good upgrade!

The adjustments are cake if you have a dremel or something similar. The brackets that the mounting bolts slide into are a little too thick and need a little grinding. It only takes a few minutes and doesnt alter the appearance.

bought mine from one of those infinitiparts.net websites and it took 5-10 minutes to make my car look 5-10 times better....no grinding, bolt problems, scuffing, scaffing or whatever they were talking about up there. by the way, i dont think that website exists anymore but there are more like it. infinithelp.com sells the grill also.
