Yup, just did it today ;) I did two runs, one was a 3rd gear pull the other was a 4th gear pull. The dyno's were done by eipTuning in Westminster, MD. You can check them out at http://www.eiptuning.com or give them a call at 1-800-784-8100, just make sure to tell them Dave from ActiveTuning sent ya.

Performance modifications: Mossy Gen II Catback, Stillen Race Pipe, Injen Cold Air Intake, Unorthodox Crank Pulley, 18" wheels.

Here's the video I compiled:

i know this may sound like a dumb questoin, but an honest ansewr would be appreciated, if i were to buy the sport grille for my altima, do they do a very good job painting the grille, im assuming you use factory colors, but im just curious if i shuold just paint it here, i dont want the paint to get screwed up in shipping or anything ya know, also, im assuming since u dont have any silver in stock it would take about a month and a half to get to my door?, and lastly ( sorry for all hte ?s) what looks better in your opinion, silver on my silver car, or the 'natural' silver that it comes with?

Of course not ;)

Actually, it's my company that makes the grille, we do an excellent job of painting ;) Anyways, when the grilles come back, they will actually be sold unpainted, so you won't really have the option anymore. Make sure to stay tuned to ActiveTuning.com on a daily basis, because it's possible that they may be around only for a limited time, and that's it.

My honest opinion, silver with natural aluminum mesh looks best...great example here:

i know, ive seen all the pics, and that is my favorite also, i want a small nismo symbol in the corner of my grille, im assuming you dont sell those? also, thanks for all the answers to my questions, but one last one, about how much would it cost to get the grille painted by someone else? i have a bottle of touch-up paint, but i dont know if it will be enough to paint the grille, just a ball park would be very appreciated, thanks alot

No problem, you can find the Nismo emblem on eBay, that's where we got ours ;)

As for a body shop painting it, should be between $35-$75

thats a pretty big gap between the paint, i was thinking more like 3o bucks or so, will the price of the grille come down considering the paint wil no longer be included?

Actually, we took it off the market, but it should be back on this week in limited quantities. Either check ActiveTuning.com on a daily basis and order ASAP as soon as you see news that it's back, or e-mail me and I'll add you to my list, and I'll e-mail you back as soon as you can order. You can pay either PayPal or send a check/money order. My e-mail is [email protected]

Since we are on the subject of from grills. I hope that all the '04 Maxima owners purchase some sort of after market grill. I do not like the stock one at all.
