V35 Front Grill Replacement

[Kolossus]

Hey guys, sorry if this is on a thread else where, searched it up but couldn't find anything useful .

Anyway I was wondering how hard it would be to swap a standard 2001 front grill (sedan) to something like this http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Nissan-v35-g35-skyline-Carbon-Fiber-Grille-grill-gtr-/140556788179?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item20b9d661d3#ht_2564wt_905.

All help is appreciated,

Joshua.

you need to find one thats made for a sedan....sedan and coupe grills are not interchangeable...and would be a pain in the arse to fit a coupe one on a sedan.

Ahk was unaware that they were a different size. Thanks for the info N15m0

[n15m0]

NP...just for future reference, most of the front end stuff between coupes and sedans are different...ie: bonnet, bumper, grill, headlights, corner indicators. Even S1 and S2 sedans have different headlights, bonnets and front bars too, so check before you buy

that will make my life difficult wont it haha, dont suppose you know if the kits on bodykitkingdom.com.au is a S1?

also do not buy USDM lights. read the FAQ for the reason why.

that url is not working for me

[Kolossus]

yes I did catch that bit of info Chris, thanks for the double check though. 2002 is S1 correct? Also the stock unit doesn't have an AUX input does it, as I am going to pick up my 300gt tomorrow and was wondering if I should make up some cd's for the trip home and do they play MP3 disks?

That Gialla Kit would be a series 1.

You can check out more kits here on Japanparts.com

Majority are for coupes with a handful for sedans

aux input is behind the stereo I'm pretty sure...I will let Chris confirm that.

It was in Gold Coast got her and we were home last night at 7:30pm, left at 1am to get down there o.O, She is beautiful, has almost every premium option available except sunroof by the looks of it (will double check the list later). I will post some picks in the gallery later on today.

[Kolossus]

- sunroof

- rear camera

- dealer installed DVD

- AC power supply

and - toll card reader

These are the options it doesn't have (and sports + track ones) so a good buy at $14000 drive away with 41000 on the clock 300gt.

- sunroof

These are the options it doesn't have (and sports + track ones) so a good buy at $14000 drive away with 41000 on the clock 300gt.
