Default **Painted Front Grill to match****

Just got my z back from the body shop after being hit over 3 weeks ago. The black grill is now the same color as the car. I actually think it looks good. What are your thoughts?

It is actually difficult to notice the blue from afar. I was a little scared at first, but after having it for a couple of days, i really like how the entire bumper blends in. I think if it were a lighter color, it may not look as good.

Is that a stillen version 1 spoiler on it? If so I'd like to see a pic or two of it from the side and back.

The spoiler is from Kaminari. It is very clean, however it scrapes quite often, especially if you have lowered your z. I agree, the chrome grill looks good too!

i too would like that license plate holder elsewhere, but whatever. i personally like it better than the chrome strips for pep boys. Nice job, and way to be unique!

Nice job. I'm with Nissan350ZTT on the small details, in my experience they really do get noticed and are more than worth it for your ride.
