- Bolt-over design that mounts over the existing grille
- No cutting required.
- Covers the Nissan logo
- Comes in three pieces.
Things to check first
A bolt-over insert sits on top of the factory grille, so how it attaches depends on the grille it is placed over. Look at the existing grille for cracks, loose clips or worn tabs before adding weight to it. Pay attention to the clearance behind the grille as well, since a thicker insert can rub on hood latch parts or sensor housings. Confirm that the emblem area is clear before tightening.
Billet aluminum is machined from solid stock, so the finish is usually a surface treatment rather than paint. Clean it with mild soap and water and a soft cloth, and avoid abrasive pads that can dull the black finish. Road salt and grit can leave residue on the edges, so rinse the grille regularly. Check the fasteners after rough roads to keep the insert seated.
- Inspect the factory grille before mounting
- Check hood and sensor clearance
- Rinse off salt and grit regularly
