Im installing OEM 2008 Nismo bumper on my 05 roadster. The rear bumper does not have the mesh and the stealership wants over $600 for the two strips of mesh.

Any suggestions for mesh that looks like the oem mesh. Im thinking home depot or lowes but Id rather pay a bit more for something that looks like the real stuff.

 

I thought you were crazy at first...then I found this: http://www.nissanpartszone.com/compo...-850-34_2.html

$280 per side! That's ridiculous. I'll keep looking.

 

Any other suggestions for mesh?

 

Extreme Dimensions has some universal cut to fit mesh.

 

Most body shops should have mesh that they can cut and bondo onto the bumper. My shop had 3 or 4 different kinds that I picked from and had them paint for my front bumper.

 

I bought the AiT nismo v3 rear end and is spot on with the fitment and came with the mesh also

 

Ill ask AIT if they can sell me mesh.

 

I called Extreme Dimension. They have two kinds of mesh and its $50 per order. Im thinking of doing the Home Depot variety since mesh is mesh and they have more selection......

 

I used Home Depot mesh thats used for gutters. I primed before I installed it, and then painted it when I painted the bumpers.




The mesh looks light because its reflecting light. It is actually painted black with clear coat

 

Looks pretty good. Installed pics?

 

Of course:





With muffler removed (but I installed the Nismo muffler later)


Check out my thread on the 350z convertible forum on this website

 

Innovative with the home depot mesh. We also sell an ABS plastic mesh, that has more of an oem feel to it.

 

Paint or wrap the crash bar.
