Adding OEM Grille to Bumper
Ok so I'm new to the 350z but definitely not to the nissans. Anyways I just bought a 07 350z and I'm very happy with it. However I couldn't help but notice the front grill is missing. Here's a pic of it. It seems like someone cut that whole part out maybe for an intercooler and never put it on. Well. If I buy the 4 metal/plastic parts that go there ill still need to do some fiberglass work which doesn't worry me. But I would like if someone could send me a close pic of their grille to see what I'm missing (because that black part is part of the bumper right??). Thanks!!!

Since the horns were relocated, that car was probably boosted at one point. Anyhow, the 06+ grill and the bumper is all one piece and then 4 grey plastic pieces cover the grill for a clean look. What you're talking about doing will be far too much work, time and money; buying a new bumper would be easier in the long run.

I don't really like the aftermarket bumpers if anything ill get an oem one. It really wouldn't be that much if a headache I kind of want to tackle doing it, also it's probably much cheaper to do it this way. I just don't want to leave that open cause 1. It kinda looks bad and 2. I don't want anything destroying my condenser or rad.
Can anyone send me a pic of their front grill just to see what it looks like?

Thanks man. The vertical lines don't look that bad. Really what I need to do is get lucky and go to the junkyard and try to find one bumper like that and cut the black clip part out. I think the other chrome parts are like 20 bucks so shouldn't be that bad

I'm seeing ~ $50 for the bottom, $20 each for the 2 top sides and $15 for the top center. At any rate, it will add up unless you can find them used. Good luck.
Yeah but it's much cheaper then getting a new bumper or even used and having to paint it and noticing the paint difference later lol. Thanks for the help
