The altima coupe and sedan have two completely different grills. The sedan uses a solid surround while the coupe has a two part grill. On the coupe the surround is molded into the bumper from the sides to the top. The only seperate piece is the bottom lip which internally has some strange angles. It is going to be pretty difficult to make a grill insert that will allow for a clean installation with flawless looks when it's completed.
The sedan is a lot easier as it is all one piece and "should" be a simple replacement of the entire insert/surround.
We know that there is a huge interest for this so we have not given up on the project but it will not be easy to make.
I've lost faith on any grill coming out. I mean it's all hype then nothing...I am tempted to just paint the mustache to match the body and use some perferated (sp?) grill mesh like on the Sedan fascia and be done with it.mcheddadi wrote:I need an official update on this, blake? josh? kyle? whats the status of these?
remember than you are sitting on a FREAKING HUGE GOLDMINE. better act quick before the 09 grills come out
That looks awesome. This is what I had in mind for a fascia when I initially bought my car. Love the black mesh behind so the rad isn't so exposed. Also, Instead of the "Stillen" logo, I wanted to put in a "Nissan". Not the burger style, but just plain lettering as the Stillen is.nogears909 wrote:thought id throw this in here, photoshop i did of what im praying someone comes out with...as u you can see im praying for that someone to be Stillen
If someone wants to donate a grill, I will gladly come up with something. Graphic Design skills...Activate. Form of...A new grill.LongBeachCoupe wrote:Id make it a sticky if it wasnt just speculation... stillen knows we want a grill.. i think everyone does...
Soon its gonna be something a member winds up churning out... the grill can be dremeled out, and the frame reused...
CORE SWAP FTW.. someones got some time on their hands... how about a Stillen Fascia owner donating their grill piece to someone interested in making an attempt... Gry strm is my first bet on getting it done...
