I do know this is a repost but I had no luck. So I am going to try something different. I have seen an add on JDM grill for the early (1991) Q45. If anyone has one I would like some input. Any help finding a vendor for this part would be sweet plus I am looking for a good vendor to get vip style parts that is in the US.

Thank Pauly

VIP_Q45T owns this G50. Click on his name, get his email address and see if you can find out where he got it from. Here's the pic. Is this the grill?

Looks like Admiration sells something like this.

Check it.

Update:

Looks like memoryfab has the exact one --$400.

New to VIP so have no idea if they're a reputable dealer or not.

^that looks like they just took a 94-96 Q45 grill and just added some plastic to it.^

^Are those supposed to be eyelids?^

Only thing I like is the Headlights and eyelids.

The grill looks like a 97-2001 Q45 grill and the doors and side skirts are embarrassing.

you would probably have better luck just switching out the front end.

I have a stock hood with grill, and headlights and bumper, maybe even the fenders but i dont think you would have to switch those out.

let me know if youre interested ill make you a good deal to get them out of here.

Switching the entire FE will do the trick, the main issue if you go that route is the door and front fender trim won't match up. It's purely cosmetic, but that would be why you'd swap the FE's to begin with, isn't it?? Check out the side profile of both years and you'll see. If someone's going to go through that much trouble, they should spend the extra $$ and get a President FE, IMHO.
