Hi all,

New owner of old 03 Murano SE here. Love the thing so far.
Only thing I'd change, looks wise, is the grille, which I'm not a fan of. But the less toothy/gappy looks of the 06 version, though only subtly different, are a lot nicer to me. Two questions:

Anyone know if it's a bolt-on swap?
Haven't seen the new one in person.
Is it chrome, or some sort of silver painted finish?

Ok, another couple questions.
Anyone know about swapping in the new shifter mechanism
for the manual shift option (which just seems like a couple buttons and maybe software?)

Thanks
Roger

At this point in time I would think the dealer might be the only person who can tell you if the grills are interchangeable. Check with the guys at the service desk. Do a little schmoozing and they may even be able to pull one out of stock if they have it.

As far as the shifter goes... do a search here. I think change-over is discussed in one of the threads.

Good luck.

Murano grille is chrome plating over copper on a plastic substrate.
