Front Grille Decision (Pt 2!)

[joesouthgate]

Right I'm not sure if I prefer the open mouth or the nismo grille I have? Thought I would see what everyone else thinks.
(Notice the new straightness off the front bumper since I did the new front panel and crossmember!)
Nismo grille (fitted now):

Open mouth (Photoshop):

 

[Scouse boy]

prefer the Nismo grill mate but may be its because you have the splitter on. either way your car is well nice

As much as I actually love the nismo one, the other open mouth grille is looking nicer in that image, just my opinion though.

After making myself sick scrolling up and down on the screen, I'm going to say NISMO.

lol me too

i really cannot make my mind up they both look great, the normal one looks more stock, but the top one looks more technical with the thin lines...

at least its not that much effort to swap, i think you should hot swap them and have a different one each day lol

 

[joesouthgate]

lol! I'll probs make a open mouth just for the fun of it, then see which one i prefer.

after 2 years of super open mouth, im actualy going to stick a stock one back on.... they have just started to grow on me..

 

[Makrakin08]

Nismo mouth

 

[Optispart]

nismo! both look good though

 

[squarepants]

nismo because its diffrent and expensive...and its a genuine part not some knocked up standard grill thats been cut and fibreglassed... (no offence anyone who owns one)

 

[b47to]

nismo but take the nismo badge off

 

[squarepants]

nismo but take the nismo badge off

dont be gay lol...the badges make the grill

 

[nef1000]

heres my idea.
go with nismo but put silver mesh in it and also between the fog lights lower down. then paint the badge red.

[Davey C]

Nismo grill as is imo

 

[joesouthgate]

mmm i think the consensus is to stick with the nismo then lol

 

[SR/SR]

nismo grill for sure i now have to look for a open mouth grill and a sr/super front bumper

 

[joesouthgate]

make your own open mouth, and you car has a super s bumper lol

 

[Robb]

Nismo, fantastic as it is.

 

[MicraFish]

Definitely Nismo grill, MM, much awesomer in my opinion!

 

[wasthadon]

n e 1 no wer i can get either of them grills? cheers!

 

[Pyro]

I prefer the open mouth as it respects the original shape of the car better, it just looks more natural. Besides, although many may disagree, that variant of the nismo logo is hideous (runs for cover).

make the open mouth, import the nismo.

agreed,

that is the original nismo logo, that they used back in the day, the newer one is much nicer i think with the red "O"

 

[joesouthgate]

maybe i'll put that nismo badge i got off you on there to see what it looks like NeX.

[joesouthgate]

 

[NeX]

[joesouthgate]

mhmm, may have to put it on properly sometime. that was held on by blue tack lol

 

[Robb]

Ace, it compliments the tow eye a treat. (Y)

 

[NeX]

mhmm, may have to put it on properly sometime. that was held on by blue tack lol

[joesouthgate]

mhmm could do, i'll try and take the other one of first, but its stuck on fairly well :doh:

 

[Pyro]

Much better like this, looking good

 

[joesuper-s]

hi where did u actully get the grill from or did u make it ureself i cant find 1 any wheree? ??

 

[joesouthgate]

its a Nismo grille, you can make the second one yourself but the nismo is from Japan.

 

[b47to]

looks so so so much better with that badge on stick with that

 

[joesouthgate]

I'm probably getting rid of the badge altogether as I've got some new mesh to do the grille with, then i can experiment with badges.

 

[syrup88]

Nismo all the way mate! where did u get it from mate?? am interested
