If you are talking about the one on EbAy then don't buy it. It is a 'snap over' it isn't a full grille replacement. You will probable be able to see the original grille under it. Hope this helps you.

I have a billet grille that was installed by the dealer before I purchased the car. At first, I thought it was a little ugly but it's really grown on me. It is two pieces, one replaced the factory grille and the second covers the lower opening in the bumper. I'm not sure where the grille came from, but it certainly isn't the same one I've been seeing on eBay. The factory grille is no longer in place, so it actually replaced it. It's also pretty high quality - it is painted black and then polished on the front facing edges, and it's got ALOT of billet spaced tightly so it looks pretty good. I don't think it's Nissan OEM but I guess I could call the dealer and find out if they sell it or not.

My digital camera is out of comission right now. I tried to take some pics today with my phone but they came out terrible. I actually found my exact grille on eBay but it doesn't seem to be the same one I've been seeing. Check it out. They're only selling the top part in this listing but I have both the top and bottom on my car. The top grille was removed before the dealer installed the new one so it's not an over-lay. I can't tell if the bottom piece is still there or not, but that means that even if it is, you can't see it. I actually like my grille alot now.

Well, like I said, I didn't buy it... it was already on the car at the dealership when I bought the car. I wasn't too fond of the grille at first, but it was the only car on the lot that I wanted, so I made them give me the grille practically for free. However, I can tell you that the factory grille is no longer in place underneith the billet one. I guess this means it's a complete grille instead of an "overlay", but I can't be sure that it doesn't need parts from the factory grille to be installed properly because I didn't install it. For the bottom portion, I can't tell if the factory grille is still there or not, but even if it is, you definately can not see it through the grille. I get down on my hands and knees and look between the billet and can not see it.
