The GX-5 badge is in the wrong place me thinks..

Should be in the bottom corner like the GL badges etc.

I wonder who's Datsun 1200 worship shrine this is?

Is this the correct colouring for the GX grille?
The grill in the non GX coupe in the brochure on the wall is the same but with the addition of the silver bar across the middle.

I believe it is. The ute ones were silver around the lights. All the Coupe ones were the same.

has anyone got one of the real GX grills like the one in the GX5 brochure there, the grill with three horizontal slots at either end?

i've seen a few pictures but most have them have been bad quality pictures, and never heard of anyone actually having one

There was a scruffy GX 3 slot grille sold here on Trademe about 6 months back...though that is the first I've seen in NZ.

That looks like a real GX grille to me. But I agree the badge is in the wrong place.

Early grille

Early GX coupes used this grille, while newer ones used an updated GL grille:
