Bought an '11 Kizashi XL 6sp and love it! I've been thinking about attempting to switch out my lower grille for a sports grille just because it looks so good (not trying to pretend I got the sports, just love the look). Has anyone done this before/seen it done?I don't know if it would fit. Is the grille even available for purchase online or otherwise?

I too would like to perform the same mod. Have you figured this out yet. Is the sport grill just a bolt on type deal?

Here are the instructions. Really hard to figure out without having experience. But It could be really easy. Guess one would just have to see how it goes.

I appreciate the instructions but they are for the aftermarket grills. The op and I are looking to install the factory sport mesh grill. The bottom one. Just wondering if it is a direct swap or not

OOPS! Don't know about that. Hard to say if it's just a swap as the sport bumper is a bit different. Good Luck!
