It has been a widespread problem, I had mine replaced twice under warranty. Bad material/design..

I never paid since mine was under warranty. But I'd just get one off EBAY or go aftermarket, don't buy one from the dealer.

$62.18 and the install is easy:http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...ories

I went aftermarket with a replacement grille that is a replica of the old grille. Only problem is that it didnt come with the Nissan Emblem.... I went to dealership to buy the new emblem, but they had to order it. It came in today but it was a very small copy of the one I have now.

The old one is kind of crappy looking, but can it be taken off old grille?

if i go to buy a emblem online how do i know if its a small or large emblem

Sounds like they might have ordered you rear emblem that is smaller. Just have them confirm that it is the right one. Here is the part number for the front emblem [62310] EMBLEM-FRONT (rear is [84815MA] EMBLEM-TRUNK LID for reference) And yes it can be taken off, just clips on the backside...

This is great site to look for part numbers as well:http://www.courtesyparts.com/m....html
