For the conqueror in every truck, Jeep or SUV owner, the ARIES grille guard offers the tough, trail-ready look you demand. It begins with a one-piece frame of 1/4" thick welded plates and 1-1/2" mandrel-bent tubing for a solid build. Each one is made with a vehicle-specific design for a better fit, easier install and more secure mounting. The side brush guards are custom-bent to contour to the profile of your vehicle, while the mounting brackets are positioned for a no-drill application. This means pre-existing factory holes are used to ensure optimum fitment and less vibration. This particular custom grille guard fits specific years of the Nissan Armada and Titan (see application info to verify). The ARIES grille guard also makes it easy to customize the look of your vehicle. Not only does the crossbar have two pre-drilled holes for mounting aftermarket LED lights, but many of our grille guards are also available in two finish options -- polished stainless steel or semi-gloss black steel. The stainless steel grille guard is made with 304 stainless, being high in nickel content and truly resistant to rust and corrosion. This option comes with a mirror-like polished finish for a definitive shine. The semi-gloss black grille guard is made with high-strength carbon steel for added strength. It features a tough, dual-layer E-coat and black powder coat finish to protect against rust, scratches and the elements. All ARIES grille guards also come with rubber stripping along the risers to protect the frame against scuffs and scratches.

The ARIES 9046 1-1/2-Inch Black Steel Grille Guard, No-Drill, Select Nissan Armada, Titan (Part #BBDR9046) fits 2005-2015 Nissan Armada models. The 2015 model year is the last year covered by this part number. For newer models, check for an updated version.
Yes, the ARIES 9046 1-1/2-Inch Black Steel Grille Guard, No-Drill, Select Nissan Armada, Titan (Part #BBDR9046) is designed to fit the 2005-2015 Nissan Armada.
The ARIES 9046 1-1/2-Inch Black Steel Grille Guard, No-Drill, Select Nissan Armada, Titan (Part #BBDR9046) Refer to the included instructions for installation details. Basic hand tools are typically all you need.
Yes, part number 9046 fits 04-08 Nissan Titan (including Pro 4-X) and 04-08 Nissan Armada. However, the installation procedure differs slightly between model years. The 08 Armada uses different top brackets and attachment points than the 04-07 Armada and Titan models. Separate top bracket kits are included for each application.
Yes, the Curt 9046 is compatible with the Nissan Titan Pro 4-X. However, the Pro 4-X has a factory skid plate that must be removed before installation. You will need to remove four Torx bolts from the front and two hex bolts from the rear of the skid plate, then remove the skid plate and its mounting bracket. After installing the grille guard, the skid plate and bracket are reinstalled using the original factory hardware.
The kit includes: 4 × 12-1.25mm × 45mm hex bolts (Grade 10.5), 4 × 12-1.25mm × 30mm hex bolts, 2 × 10-1.50mm × 25mm hex bolts (Allen bolts), 2 × 8mm × 35mm hex head bolts, 4 × 12mm nylock nuts, 2 × 10mm nylock nuts, 2 × 8mm nylock nuts, 4 × 12mm ID × 29mm OD × 3mm flat washers, 8 × 12mm ID × 24mm OD flat washers, 4 × 10mm flat washers, 4 × 8mm flat washers, and 2 × 2" × 1¼" adhesive foam strips. The specific fasteners used depend on your vehicle model and whether factory tow hooks are present.
Yes, factory tow hooks must be removed or repositioned. If your vehicle has factory tow hooks, remove the front bolt completely and loosen the rear bolt by 3/8", then slide the tow hook toward the rear to remove it. On Titan Pro 4-X models, you must first remove the skid plate (four Torx bolts in front, two hex bolts in rear) to access the tow hooks. The tow hooks are then reattached to the mounting brackets using the original factory bolts.
Yes, the factory grille shell must be removed before installing the grille guard. The grille shell is held in place by twelve clips. Remove all clips, carefully pull the grille shell out, and set it aside in a clean area. The grille shell is reinstalled after the top support brackets are attached but before the grille guard is mounted.
Yes, assistance is required. The manual specifically states "With help, position Grille Guard on the outer side of the Mounting Brackets" in step 8. The grille guard is a large component that requires at least one additional person to position correctly during installation.
The installation sequence is: 1) Remove tow hooks (and skid plate on Pro 4-X). 2) Install mounting brackets to frame using factory tow hook bolts or supplied bolts (do not tighten). 3) Remove factory grille shell. 4) Apply foam strips to top brackets. 5) Install top brackets to bumper (do not tighten). 6) Reinstall grille shell. 7) Position and attach grille guard to mounting brackets (do not tighten). 8) Attach top brackets to grille guard (do not tighten). 9) Level and adjust grille guard, then tighten all hardware. 10) Reinstall skid plate on Pro 4-X models if applicable.
Fasteners are left loose during the initial assembly stages to allow for leveling and adjustment of the grille guard. Once the grille guard is positioned correctly and leveled, all hardware is tightened simultaneously in step 10. This ensures proper alignment and fit before final tightening.
If your vehicle is not equipped with factory tow hooks, use the included 2 × 12-1.25mm × 40mm hex bolts (Grade 10.5) and 2 × 12mm oversize flat washers to attach each mounting bracket directly to the frame. Do not tighten these bolts until step 10 when the grille guard is leveled and adjusted.
The 08 Armada uses different top brackets and attachment points. On the 08 Armada, remove the outer plastic fastener on each side of the top inner bumper (the one closer to the lights), then attach the top bracket using a supplied 8mm × 35mm hex head bolt, 2 × 8mm flat washers, and 1 × 8mm nylock nut. On Titan and 04-07 Armada models, remove the two factory bolts on the top inner bumper and attach the top brackets using those existing bolts. Foam strips must be applied to both versions before attachment.
Adhesive foam strips are applied to the bottom and top surfaces of the top support brackets to protect the finish of the bumper and grille shell. The manual notes this is "a must on the 08 Armada." The foam acts as a protective barrier between the metal brackets and the painted surfaces.
To ease reinstallation, mount the fasteners on the grille shell first. Once all fasteners are installed on the grille shell, align the fasteners to the original mounting locations and push the grille shell back into place. The grille shell should be reinstalled before attaching the grille guard to the mounting brackets.
The grille guard is attached to the mounting brackets using 6 × 12-1.75mm × 35mm hex bolts, 4 × 12mm nylock nuts, and 8 × 12mm flat washers. These fasteners are not tightened until step 10 when the grille guard is leveled and adjusted.
The top brackets are attached to the grille guard using 2 × 10-1.5mm × 25mm Allen bolts (hex bolts), 2 × 10mm nylock nuts, and 4 × 10mm flat washers. These fasteners are not tightened until step 10 when the grille guard is leveled and adjusted.
Wax the grille guard after installation and perform regular waxing to add a protective layer over the finish. Do not use any polish or wax containing abrasives, as these can damage the finish. For stainless steel finishes, aluminum polish may be used to polish small scratches and scuffs, and mild soap may be used for cleaning. For gloss black finishes, use only mild soap for cleaning. Perform periodic inspections to ensure all hardware remains secure and tight.
After installation, perform periodic inspections to ensure that all hardware is secure and tight. The manual does not specify the inspection interval, but regular checks are recommended to maintain the integrity of the installation. Check all bolts, nuts, and washers at the mounting brackets, top brackets, and grille guard attachment points.
Yes, the Curt 9046 fits 04-08 Nissan Armada models. The 08 Armada uses different top brackets than 04-07 models, and both bracket types are included in the kit.
No. The Pro 4-X skid plate must be removed to access the tow hooks. Remove four Torx bolts from the front and two hex bolts from the rear, then reinstall the skid plate after the grille guard is installed using the original hardware.
Yes. The factory grille shell is held by twelve clips and must be removed before installation, then reinstalled after the top brackets are attached but before the grille guard is mounted.
The manual does not provide a specific tools list. However, based on the fasteners used, you will need hex wrenches or sockets for 8mm, 10mm, and 12mm bolts, a Torx socket for removing the Pro 4-X skid plate (if applicable), and a hex socket for the Allen bolts. A helper is required to position the grille guard.
Yes. The manual explicitly states "With help, position Grille Guard" in step 8, indicating that at least one additional person is required to safely position the grille guard during installation.
Do not tighten any fasteners until step 10, after the grille guard is leveled and adjusted. This allows for proper alignment before final tightening.
Wax the grille guard after installation and regularly thereafter. Do not use abrasive polish or wax. For stainless steel, aluminum polish may be used for minor scratches; for gloss black, use mild soap only. Perform periodic inspections to ensure all hardware remains tight.
