The rear looks tight... the front on the other hand looks like its missing something. Its almost as if it was designed to specifically have something there... but looks good either way!

You know I was thinking that too. That's why I was kicking around the idea of a different type of grill .

I debadged mine , front and rear as well. I think the rear is much cleaner in appearence. The front makes it look stealth and one hell of a lot cleaner. Why did they put the belt buckle on it in the first place?

I love the clean, sleek look of the modded SC430. Reminds me of the aggressive stance of the G35C

That blacked out stock grill is pretty sweet!
That might be the move I make rather than trying to fabricate a stainless mesh one.
Thanks for posting the pics!

I might have been looking at the wrong thing but I thought I saw the black L for something like $300
I thought that was way too much.
