S Grilles Limited Availability Coming In Weeks

May 22nd, 2008 by Dave

There has been major demand for our S style grilles over the past few months, and in-between our move, and some other issues/delays on our end, it has been some time before we’ve been able to sell the grilles.

We’re finally approaching the final leg of production of a limited batch for the following grilles:

Nissan Altima S5 Grille
Nissan Altima S2 Grille
Nissan Maxima S4.1 Grille

There will be a select amount of each of the above grilles, that we hope to have completed and ready to sell within the next 3-4 weeks (Crossing my fingers for no delays). These grilles will be available on a first come first serve basis, and once they’re sold, I don’t know when we’ll have more again.

For ease of purpose on our end, we’ll only be painting the grilles silver and black. For those with silver/black Altima’s/Maxima’s, you’ll get lucky. For those with other colors, but still want a grille, we’ll have a VERY SMALL amount of unpainted grilles available, otherwise you would have to pay the premium of a painted grille, and then get it painted locally to match your cars color.

Please stay tuned for updates on when we’ll start accepting orders. If you’ve already sent us an e-mail and we’ve told you that you’re on our list, you should see an e-mail with an update when we’re ready. If there are any questions, please contact us directly or post your comment below.

Update: The latest update on the grilles can be found here.

Hi Dave ,

Our mutual client is interested to know his cost on a painted black one for his 04 Maxima . (S4.1)

I told him it could be here in 5 weeks .

Thanks ,
Paul.

Paul,

There is no special price, so it would be listed price on our website product page which can be found here.

Keep in mind that the timeframes I wrote about is what we’re shooting for, and hopefully can meet. But anything can happen, as we’ve learned in the past.

Hi,

I would like to book in advancs an s2 grille. What are the procedures? And to let u know im from dubai, U.A.E, let me know the shipping charges! thanks
on 22 May 2008 at 3:46 pm4 Dave

Marlon,

We are not taking any advanced orders. We want to ensure we know when we’ll be shipping 100% before we start accepting anything. Stay tuned for updates.

so the very small amount of unpainted grilles you are going to have you can’t not paint them any other color even if we pay extra?
and how about the diamond mesh are you going to be able to install the nissan emblem and put the powdercoating?
please let me know i’m very interested in buying the s5 grille and the led side mirrors.
on 22 May 2008 at 7:33 pm6 Dave

Raoul - Unfortunately not. The only ones that we’ll be able to offer painted are the black and silver that we stock. For the pre-painted ones, we’ll be able to install mesh….for unpainted we cannot.

Mesh will be available powdercoated on both.

Please stay tuned for full details as I will write a post when I have all the information.
on 22 May 2008 at 10:31 pm7 Neal

Please let me know when these are available in Black, powdercoated, diamond mesh. Thanks.

so if i wanted to buy a s5 grill an get it painted majestic blue u guys wont do it anymore???
on 24 May 2008 at 4:20 pm10 Dave

Unfortunately we cannot paint it for you. You can either buy one that’s pre-painted silver/black, or if you happen to get one unpainted. You would then have to take it to your local body shop to get painted.
on 24 May 2008 at 10:25 pm11 Jimmy

hey dave,

its me again…i was just wondering if we will be sent emails when the product becomes available for shipping and whether or not we can still get the SE-R emblem put on it?
on 25 May 2008 at 1:32 am12 Dave

Jimmy - You will be. Not sure on the SE-R emblem or not just yet, but we should have them available. They are just adhesive (and can be purchased at a Nissan dealership), so no need for us to install it…we just include it in the box.
on 26 May 2008 at 1:13 pm13 Ben

If I could be sent an email when the S5 grilles becomes available too, that would be great. So the colors available would be the super black or the sheer silver corect? Also will the black powdercoat be availabe in a diamond mesh? I got to get my hands on one of these it makes the SE-R look so much more agressive…

Thanks for you help.

I need a black one for a 2005 altima ser plase let me know when they a ready to sale.
on 30 May 2008 at 3:17 pm15 D-Funk

I would be interested in getting an email when the S5 grille is available in silver.
on 30 May 2008 at 4:48 pm16 Nathaniel

on 01 Jun 2008 at 12:11 pm18 Dave

iurie, as I mentioned in the blog post post, we’re shooting for 3-4 weeks….although delays can always happen.

IS IT ALREADY in PROCESS I CAN ORDER THEM NOW???

OR YOU WILL GIVE US A HEADS UP

SO I DONT MISS IT BY ANY CHANCE!!
on 01 Jun 2008 at 5:59 pm20 Dave

I did not mention a date, which is why we’re not taking orders just yet. We don’t want to start taking money until we know 100% when we’ll be ready to ship.
on 03 Jun 2008 at 5:11 am21 oscar

do you know if and when youll be making an s-grill for ‘08 maximas???
on 03 Jun 2008 at 8:18 am22 Dave

@oscar - There are no plans at this time.
on 03 Jun 2008 at 3:21 pm23 Paul Sookdeo

HEY, I WOULD LIKE TO PLACE AN ORDER FOR THE S5 GRILL FOR MY 2005 ALTIMA , TOP & BOTTOM., AS SOON AS IT’S AVAILABLE
on 03 Jun 2008 at 3:25 pm24 iurie

i wonder too how much are the grils for 05 altima for bottom bumper and top bumper!!

i am looking to buy them as soon as they are out!
on 03 Jun 2008 at 3:27 pm25 Dave

@iurie - The prices are on the product page.

The bottom bumper has been discontinued for a while though.
on 03 Jun 2008 at 9:58 pm26 iurie

so the bottom bumper is not going to be sold !!
only the top one??

when is going to be available to be purchased because i want to buy and make sure its the whole package! are there any other places where i can buy the bottom one because i really want it! and you should order them or make them be cause there are people trying to buy them!
on 03 Jun 2008 at 10:26 pm27 Dave

@iurie - That is correct, the bottom is not available any longer. As far as I know, nobody else makes one with the same mesh that we use. The only way to get one would be used.
on 04 Jun 2008 at 10:27 am28 iurie

the question is where can i buy a used one??

do u sell them if not where can i get it from??

does that mean the bottom grill is not available for 02, 03, 04 nissan altima or they are just differnt shapes then the 05 nissan altima??
on 04 Jun 2008 at 10:35 am29 Dave

You can try the forums like NissanClub.com, or eBay even.

We no longer make any lower grille, but when we did, they are different models between the 02-04 and 05-06 as the bumpers are shaped differently.
on 05 Jun 2008 at 12:51 pm30 iurie

well the ones that ebay have are not the same as these! these are unique and look much better the ones on ebay are not as good made as these! and for nissan club forum i dont know
where to look at maybe if you know where to buy them from exactly the web site you can paste it here plz! i dont want to buy something that is not a set from lower bumper and higher pumper! ty
on 12 Jun 2008 at 1:35 pm31 iurie

on 29 Jun 2008 at 5:06 pm41 Blair

once again active tuning fails to meet the date they announced, fails to even post even an update as to the item. you’re a real gong show huh AT?
on 29 Jun 2008 at 7:32 pm42 Dave

Blair - I posted an update in the comments on the 21st. The 22nd is an estimated date that we were shooting for as I even posted.

Grilles are underway, and we’ll be taking orders shortly.

Stay tuned!
on 29 Jun 2008 at 10:48 pm43 iurie

Dave i have a few questions for you!

1) i see on Ebay they sell the Nissan altima Front Bumper Sport Grill kinda same like urs

thier price is around 150$ what is urs?

2) if u could go and check on ebay and write
nissan altima front sport grill and u will see designs for 02 to 06 altima grills are they like urs or are they different

3) what is the difference between urs and the ones that are sold on ebay

and what is the difference in price??

i dont know if u r selling the same kinda of style

or not! thanks
on 30 Jun 2008 at 8:56 am44 Dave

Iurie - Can you please e-mail us directly with your questions, they are off topic from what the post is about.
on 01 Jul 2008 at 5:43 pm45 Drew

Hey Dave, i tried ordering one back in like december do u still have my on file for trying to get one that long ago and i am still interested in the S5 for my SE-r i was just wondering if i was still on the list

Dave i sent an email couple days ago!

i dont see any response i would like to konw whats going on! dave@activetuning.com

i used this email!! thanks !
on 03 Jul 2008 at 9:37 am47 jeremy

hey iurie!

evey e-mail of yours that Dave has to respond to, only takes time away from him making the grilles! lol

chill out!
on 03 Jul 2008 at 10:59 am48 iurie

jeremy! i am interested to know! because i dont want to be a fool waiting here the whole summer

and waiting for my grill! where i can go right now
and buy one at Ebay which sells a lot less

and looks good too for my 05 nissan! so unless
there is some difference between ebays

front sporty grill and his grills! i want to know!

if not then i just wasted 2 months sitting here

while i could have bought that grill a long time ago cuz ebay they have some nice ones!
on 03 Jul 2008 at 1:23 pm49 Dave

Iurie, I didn’t see an e-mail…regardless though, my official stance on the ebay grille:

Go for it if you’d like, we haven’t seen one in person so I cannot comment on the quality…I can just talk about the quality and care that we put in our products.

You’d have to get other people’s opinions on the ebay one, I do recall reading some issues about it though.
on 03 Jul 2008 at 2:44 pm50 iurie

when do we expect to have them ready!

can you give us a date aproximately!

like July 15 August 10! anything give us a clue at least when do u think they will be ready by!

i dont like when people say, stay tune its coming soon! i have been hearing this from so many people i konw how it feels when there is no date!

can you pleease post a close date THANK!
on 03 Jul 2008 at 3:46 pm51 Dave

Iurie and others,

I’ve posted the latest update on the grilles in a new blog post. Please stay tuned to the blog for updates. We will not be posting a date until we’re confident in one…and no sooner. Obviously from this post you can see why.
