The grille looks like it belongs, although I think the logo should pop more than it does. Overall, very good job.

On an unrelated note, I didn't know you could get front proximity sensors on a G37.

To me, the mesh grille makes a big visual distinction from other Gs on the road, a much sportier look vs. the "luxury" look of the chrome OEM grille (midnight grille is a step in the right direction, but still does not create a sport look IMO). Another big plus is that it looks OEM, great execution

Thanks for sharing photos, looking fwd to any more. Once I get my done sometime this Fall, I'm be sure to post some up as well.

Questions:
Did you use the front emblem from the OEM grille?
How did you fasten it to the mesh?
Also, how difficult is it to cut and fit the mesh?

Thanks in advance!

I'd bet that's a trunk emblem. The grille emblem would have to be shaved off the surrounding plastic in order to work here.

It appears to be the front emblem w/ the solid black plastic behind and just the way it looks as a whole. I'm thinking he cut the OEM mount and epoxied it to the back of the mesh or something along those lines.

Finally washed after almost 2 mo!

And for the first time since ownership (April), the G has a garage! Combined with not needing a car for my commute, it should be nice and fresh for a while

I think you posted the same pictures in three separate threads in the same forum at the same time.

I also think the wheels are on the wrong side. (edit: there really is no right or wrong if what you do is intentional.)

Other than that... beautiful.

You have the option of either direction but I agree the other way would be nicer. Either way its an upgrade from the cv4s

I posted on the Sedan thread and 6MT Sedan thread since she is a 6MT.

Every car I've seen has been rocking it the other way so wanted to be a bit different. I agree it was definitely an upgrade. Thanks.

You should snap a video of it slowly rolling through the parking lot. Preferably backwards.
