Question ML Maxima??

All,

Being new to this group, I have a lot of questions. I've read the FAQs if you will. One of this is this, I seen a ML with a grill that looked similar to the new Nissan Maxima. What’s the name of this and where can I purchase one.

Cheers!

If you could post a reference to what you saw that would help a lot. Anyway, there are basically three OEM grilles for the ML - the all black grille for the 320, the black with chrome strip for the ML500 and early ML55s, and the chrome strip and silver background grille for the later ML55, SE, and final edition models.

I have some pics here or each: The ML in the first pic is a 320 with the all black grille. The one in the second pic is a 500 with the SE grille. The last pic is a 500 with the OEM Chrome/Black grille.

Any other grilles you see on the ML are not OEM.

Oh...that you can buy on eBay sometimes.

I think somewhere between 50$-150$.

It looks like the Lorisner part...
