2010+ G sedan - "CMOD" mesh grille photos?

Edit #2: If you're interesting in learning about the custom OEM grille, check this link out: G sedan - OEM mesh grille

===========================================
Edit #1: HEADS UP: The CMOD grille (and other aftermarket mesh grilles...looks to all be the same manufacturer) is pretty poor-fitting and low-quality. See issues within this thread. Photos in this thread posted on 6/23/19 (and thereafter) are of a custom-made grille using OEM, *not* of the CMOD grille...

===========================================
Original Post:

Checking to see if anyone here has photos of this grille (or something similar) installed on a 2010+ G37 sedan?
thanks

FWIW the vendor doesn't have any install photos unfortunately but is willing to give an extra 10% refund if you buy/install and send him pics

Waiting on update. This looks like a good option over DIY.

Sorry for lack of update, dont have socket set for grille removal or drill to make the holes in the new grille, might be able to do it when I head back to NY this weekend

Here's a shot of the grille, nothing much to look at, just different view from their website:

Also I very much agree with the open mouth look, will test fit & see how the wire mesh looks, but very likely it will be too transparent & I will swap with some of this thicker ABS mesh (very similar to lower grille mesh):

Bear in mind I'll be mounting the Fuji emblem in the center as well

BUMP

1st & foremost big thanks to alfredo24pr for the help!

Here's a quick look at the grille installed, will take more photos once I can readjust it to fix the fitment a little, I'll also give a better review for the grille as well.

Got it painted, as you can tell, mesh is VERY see-thru. Grille is back off the car until I get the new mesh to swap out, also need to make some minor adjustments to improve fitment.

Ordered some thicker mesh made out of black ABS, diamond pattern, so my hope is it very closely matches the mesh of the lower grille and foglight "grilles"

Will update whenever that happens...

Hm not really digging the open mouth look, the opening is much too big IMO. But I appreciate you trying something new and it helps reinforce my choice of going with the OEM black grill. To each their own

I definitely look forward to your revised grill. I think that thicker mesh will work out nicely. There was a thread a while back about a guy who was doing something similar and it looked really good with thicker/more solid mesh. ill see if i can find it.

appreciate the feedback. And I agree with the comments

Hoping the new mesh and emblem brings it all together nicely, stay tuned...

Got the mesh a little while ago, finally opened the package, this stuff is NICE, highly recommend for any custom grille/vent projects. The material, finish, etc are all nearly identical to OEM stuff. Hefty construction but easy to cut & shape

Most importantly, this stuff is much more visible, particularly at an angle due to its depth, which IMO makes the biggest difference as the front grille will likely never be viewed from dead-on eye level, and even so, this mesh looks much better

Hoping to try the test fit soon but schedule has been very busy (OP was nearly a year and a half ago!)
