Does anyone know if this kit can be bought in pieces. If so where is the cheapest place to buy it. I was thinking of matching it up with the stillen kit. What do you guys think about that. Has anyone purchased the kit and has nice rims and paint. Its hard to tell if it will look nice on a hooked up max because all of the pictures I see of it are on a stock max. Thanks

Some people don't like this body kit but I personaly like it because its a little more aggressive looking than the stillen one even though I like that one also....... I dont know I like both I just like the aggressive looking one a little better...

I am kinda thinking about parting them together I don't know.. i also wont a hood scoop and some bmw fender scoops to add to my kit that I put on....

mixed kits

Well after looking at a few kits it seems like I want a piece from three separate kits. What do you guys think that the car would look like if you used the rear from stillen , the sides from kaminari, and the front from erebuni.(Its the one in green on the website) The erebunt kit kind of flares around the fenders and I didn't know how the kaminari side skirts would look next to it. Let me know what you think. thanks

Wow, that front end would be perfect for an Intercooler. All I would have to do is custom cut the factory front bumper.

Damn that looks nice. Is there anywhere where you can get pictures of the whole kit. I have gone to their website before and it doesn't even show that they make a kit for our cars. That is the same type of front end that I have been looking for. I'm sure its not cheap though. Let me know if you know where I can get some prices and pictures of the kit. Thanks

Picture is not real

The picture is photoshopped. I used the front bumper from an Integra Wings West bumper. Wings West currently does not make this kit. You have to get 6 people to request to make this kit available for the 3rd gen maxima. Or... You could take an Eclipse Aggressor bumper and cut it in half and shorten the length of the bumper and then mold it and bolt it on the front end of the maxima. Never tried this before but I know a guy with an Altima that did this.

Well I'm up for buying one. Who else out there wants one. Maybe we can get together and get them to build one. If they just build a front piece for now it will keep things cheaper for everyone. To me the way the front piece looks is the most important. We can just use pieces from other kits for a while. Let me know if you guys are really interested. I want that front end! Thanks

I would be very interested in the wing west bumper or kit..

I also would be very interested in this bumper or maby the whole kit if they made it for our car, but I would also not have any money for a a couple months or so...

I am also interested in looking at any other kits that we could make by putting the ones we allready have together in peices, if some one could photoshop some stuff together that would be cool and we could look at what it would look like....

Any one else have any other ideas about kits for our car....
Ok lets keep this thread going with ideas!!!!! :-)

I dont think that it would be that bad of an idea of too much of a problem to wait a couple of months. Does anyone know how long it would take for a company to fabricate it? I'm sure once its available there will be many other people who will be interested. I'm still interested in some pictures of a max with multiple kits. I hope someone has the technology out there to do it, because I dont. Thanks

Who are the guys that know how to digitally alter max's? I'd really like to see what that custom front end would look like combined with the rest of the stillen kit. Send me an e-mail adress of someone who can do it or have someone post it please. Thanks

I think we need to all get together and find out who is really serious about this front end. The sooner we get organized the sooner we can get the front end fabricated. I think I'm going to call around and get some price quotes from a couple of companies.

Well I just called like 6 different ground effects companies and not one was interested in making a new front end for our maxima's. Wings West told me that if they got enough calls and e-mails from people than they would think about it. Sounds like nobody wants to do it. Where did you hear from that said if we get 6 people that we could get one made? Everybody is stuck up honda and acura's asses and dont appreciate the maxima. That pisses me off. I wonder how easy it would be to form a interga front end to fit on the max. Well hopefully someone else can get someone to make a front end. later

I wish I knew someone who knew how to make bumpers. If I did I would get one for all of you guys. Dont worry I will find a way to get the bumper somehow. Mark my words.
