I was wanting to get a new grille on my coupe and was looking for a black one. Anyone have any suggestions?

T-rex makes a premium mesh grill and autoanything dot com is the only place that sells it i black. I put one on my coupe and had the outside lip color matched to my car.

This is when it came in black.



This is it colormatched and black

i think the trex grill looks better not body color matched..

espcially the top part of the bumper...makes the mouth..i mean grill look too big lol, a lil contrast in black looked ok to me

but still i want a gialla style bumper/grill

That is what I did, painted it a satin black and while the paint was still wet I lightly overlayed it with metalic blue, sweet look. I then clear coated it for a little more shine and protection. I left the badge on to give it that "floating look". I'll soon have pics because I'm new to the club.

WOW! that sounds really good! i need to see pics of that. i always liked having the Nissan emblem there... just looks too plain without it IMO.

now someone needs to make a better quality c-mod style grill with thicker mesh or different mesh. Definately need some more variety.
