lol that looks like the one I bought, it didn't fit correctly, it does not fit into the factory grille holes and new holes will need to be drilled.

and the metal part at the back needs to be cut...

I gave up on installing it and now it's just sitting in my garage.

Just get the K2 motor gloss black emblemless grill off eBay, it's like $115 shipped and fits directly like OEM and looks great

^this.

with Locky's assurance I just bought one this morning. $122 delivered.

lol - i didn't know you had that grill! but i guess someone was always gonna get offended by that comment.

just grab a plastic one off the net! 122 bucks no worries, bruv!

I'm going to attempt to paint mine up for 'special occasions' grill. moving to a new place with a big garage and workshop area so can't wait to get cracking on some 'projects' i've been putting off for a while!

thats kind of why i want to change it - now that the rear badges are gone people have NFI what it is, I even had a guy pull halfway into an intersection at a red light just so he could look back to see the badge!

Only issue is I reckon the Infiniti 'Mount Fuji' badge coule be confused with that of Great Wall......I don't want people thinking i'm driving the latest POS tin can from Great Wall!

Lol Mat i had an older bloke on a motorbike pull up next to me at lights and he said "hey mate that's a good lookin car for a good lookin bloke" and i was like uhhhhhhhhhmmm thanks.. haha

Don't even get me started on Great Wall.. i have a mate that sells them. F*ck knows how anyone in their right mind could buy one.

makes the front of the car look like a gummy shark.

When I first read this, I thought you said "Gummy Bear".

Harsh, but fair...

Although I also like the black grille, its a little too subtle for me.

That looks pretty good colour coded John.

Lol about people asking what your car is, i was getting fuel yesterday afternoon and i was walking towards the servo doors when i see a bunch of kids on scooters and shit looking at it telling eachother what it is. I heard one of them say "that's a bentley", they were like 10. Hahah.

It Sounds like you were almost done.

Are you by any chance near Sydney and be willing to give someone else a go with their car?

    • No......not yet Minister for War and Finances has stated that the Commodore has to go first Not that I am going to modify the NC any more than what it is already modified now.....
    • Thanks again, really helpful chap from alpha omega wanted to speak to me, little concerned if this is meant to he aero alloy/ airospace quality and car sitting on drive has caused this.  Airplane are subject to much more changing temp and conditions than road salts! My caliper, many other components much older have surface rust but never eating part of the metal   Had I not seen it , could have been a disaster! specifically on rear part of bracket coming off like biscuit will update on what they say, helpful people so far
    • January or Feb is it booked in for turbo fitment?
    • The MX5 has had some annoying rattles in both front doors over bumps So I installed fancy pants door bushings, which stopped all of the rattles with the windows up, but........with the windows down there was still rattles, so after some googling,  and a chat with MX5 Mania, I got some new door to glass weather seals, all the rattles, windows up, or down, are gone now Shout out to MX5 Mania, the weather seals were on sale, and when I head to Dural to pick the up they even fitted them for me for free I did see a "really" nice Blue NA sitting out front   and this Black NC PRHT that looked like it has sat in the sun for its whole life and never had a wash, the clear coat was non-existent, an it looked horrible, really horrible, but, it had a nice turbo kit with over 200kw, the thing went like a cut snake, bagging the rears through the gears and dosing like a champ 😍 But, as I've always stated, I am keeping my NC na, I'm happy with the current power the car makes In other news: MX5 Mania do a drive in drive out turbo kit, the only minor additional part recommended for boosting my car, as it sits now, is a oil cooler, and that bonnet vents are definitely required for track use Aftermarket version look a bit to "racecar" spec I wonder how Focus RS bonnet vents would look?????
    • Paint is only structural when applied to the outside of Chinese and Indian cars. Otherwise it should never be present between mechanical joints that were intended to be metal to metal. Pain slips, slides, cracks, compresses, and add thickness that wasn't intended to be there. It comes firmly under the category of "just no".
