Carlos... I've 'talked' to him on a couple of occasions via PM and email. Seems to be a pretty knowledgable(sp) fella.

don't people realize that the reason maximas (se's) are so dope is because they come that way? there was a time when i might have liked it but basically..if it's a maxima, keep it that way. it's clean but i just think it looks akward. i like maximas for the front end, the 89-91 grilles, the stock foglights and stock headlights. i think it would look better if he had kept it that way and just slammed it.

The car looks pretty cool. Couple of things I dont like...one instead of shaving the center trunk piece completely he just painted it. It looks funny that way IMO...if you are going to do it do it right. Two...although I really think the mustang lip looks really good on the car it doesnt match the rest of the kit. It would have been better to go with Stillen side skirts instead of BMWs because it would have matched the front better. The rear of the kit looks ok but again it just doesnt match the rest of the kit right IMO.


Other than that I like the color and the time spent on it to make it different. It does look good IMO I just dont like those few things. These are just my opinions though and no ones matters except for his own unless he puts it in a show lol.

Hey awsm, I was about to say "how do you know he painted the trunk", but then I had another look. I can see what you mean. It would have been better to have shaved it.

I like it. Its different, yet still looks like a kit someone would sell. I would have to swap to the 92-94 tails because I cannot stand 89-91 tails....

The color is what really sets it off for me.

It says on the page

"The front lip belongs to?? can you guess?
That´s right, a Ford Mustang ´96"

No idea, that part where it says Ford Mustang 96 could be a typo. I think he meant to put Skyline, but spelled it wrong. Or maybe in Mexico, Maximas are called Mustangs

I kind of like it. It is subtle compared to other kits AND it is a full bumper, not just a add on.
