How come the Altima Sedan has a grill option out but we don't?

I saw the video from Stillen on youtube on why we can't have one, but I keep seeing the sedan with mesh grills like the one below. I know they are a little different front ends but I don't see how they can have one made and we can't?



This is exactly what I am looking for.

You want to know why you can't find that grille?It's because he made it himself out of his OE grille.

Ya, I like your deep mesh grill, Jose, but I figure it would only fit Sedan and there wasn't a coupe one available?

Mine? I bought it on ebay and I believe there isn't one for the coupe because of that support thing right in the middle of the grille.

Exactly. The whole point of this thread is why the sedans have aftermarket grills when the coupes don't. I believe that's what the OP was asking.

Jose, you're correct about us coupes having that damn support bracket. I'd like to know why the sedans don't have it......

Might be because on the sedans its a full grille the top and bottom where the chrome is it's a full strip at the bottom and on the coupe the chrome in the bottom is split into two different parts.
