Thread: Looking for this Grille

Help me out on the year model of this grille. The honey comb looking one.




I've searched 95-97 and came up short. I could have sworn it was those years on the 4 door GXE. But I've only come across it on 98 GXE's. I'm guessing early 98 too cause all the 99's are different as I thought all the 98's were too. Reason I want to nail down a year is for some salvage yard trips this week. I want to know for sure what to tell the guys at the yards I visit. Some of these guys may be jerks and won't want to be so helpful as I have learned before. Plus I can look on line too. I did find it online listed as a 98, but it did not have the Nissan emblem. I'm going to re-work the front of my 200 with a head light upgrade and this grille.

Here is what I photo shopped. I borrowed the lights and grille from a pic I took of Swiss's car at the Nashville meet in May. Hope you don't mind.

You kinda were on the right track.

That is the Honeycomb grill.

It is found on 97 200sx, 97-98 Sentra's

they are all over ebay eBay Motors: 1998-1999 98 99 NISSAN SENTRA 200SX GRILL BLACK GRILLE (item 190255517213 end time Oct-28-08 12:13:08 PDT)

I thought I was heading in the right direction. Been into Sentra's WAY too long to be off by much. Anyway, I bought one yesterday so the re-work of my front is on.

^ awesome good luck

I posted up a pic on the other forum of how the blue surrounding looks. Glad u picked one up, you'll love the look.

Yeah I saw you had posted one up. Thanks. I got my grille yesterday. Went out and got paint and finished with the clear during my lunch. I saw a blue on the shelf but I didn't think it came close to matching real well. Did you find a blue off the shelf or did some one match it? You coming to the 09 convention?

I bought the blue off the shelf once and it came close but it just wasnt the same. Hopefully down by you the color is exact. So I had mine painted at a place that mixed it perfectly.

I will be at the 09 convention, I just made the reservations last night. not sure which cars were takin yet but the blue one should be there along with the new race car. so we will see u there?

Those grills came on the 1998 Sentras only.
1995-1997 200's & Sentras slate type grill
1998 200's & 1999 Sentras had the solid type grill with small opening on bottom.

Well. I'm painting it blue. I didn't like the black at all. I had to try though. I don't like how its does not fit snug at the bottom with the top of the bumper but maybe I'll get over that.
