Damn, NBS, so close yet so far. I lost interest waiting for mine to come.
From the way it looks in the pics. It may help if you paint the border IP and leave the grill black.

I'd be content if my grill turns out like Kingsfans. I think I can make it work.

i just repainted the grill and made the emblem flat black, and added grill scoops... the scoops added a crap load of hp. and my buddy assured me that wen the ecu adjusts to the amount of extra air coming in, it will b even fater.

Don't have time putting them on right now. I run a pretty tight schedule until this Wednesday. Looks like I have the same issue as yours though. But I think I have an idea to improve it *crosses fingers.

That grille looks bad. It doesn't fit. I cant' wait to see what the seller does to make it "fit" better as he obviously doesn't have access to a G37 for fitment or it would have fit right in the first place. It's a G35 Gialla replica and not a particularly good one IMO.

The mesh weave is all wrong too, it looks nothing at all like the mesh in the lower insert and the contrast really stands out to as an eyesore me. It's far too open a weave as it clearly shows the grille support and radiator behind it.

If you guys like them and think they look swell more power to you.

Black Betty does NOT endorse this product.
