I'm surprised someone is actually making some others for our cars. I actually like it better than some of the older ones offered for our Max's but I'd still stick with the Stillen kit... which I still need to get.

That kit has been around for for about 6-7 years. There's a reason you haven't seen rides with that kit, it's poorly designed. You can tell in the images that it doesn't even match up well with the wheel wells. I think it's called the Kaminari Kit.

Actually, I went ahead and did the looking for everyone to give you a link. What you show is actually an "imitation." Although, the origninal Kaminari doesn't look much better IMO.

I can think of many better ways you could use $1300 dollars...like wiping your a$$ 13 times with hundred dollar bills...

And I repeat...

But "pimping" your maxima out like that is a far worse offense...for starters, it makes us look bad!

Perhaps cuz I've never looked into a body kit for a maxima before and at just a quick sight they look very similar to me. Dont make me dig up a pic of his front pic and the eGays special...lol

Yep i have the Stillen kit. I did see a white max parked one time that had the Kaminari kit or a Kaminari knock off and it did not look good installed either. It looked very 80's looking because of the vents in the back like the fox body mustangs used to do lol.

I've seen it several places online too, referred to as the Kombat Kit. It's hilarious to me how many people come in to flame the differences in taste that others have. Here's an idea for you; a few of you can get together and make a list of "What's Hot" & "What's Not" and we can all be gay as **** together driving around perfectly matching cars modded out the exact same way till people think they just came off the production line that way. Pffft.

see here is the problem...its not HATE...its just our OPINION. If you don't like it don't read it but definitely don't make a purchase because of someones opinion.

Save up your money and buy the kit and love it because I have ALWAYS said you should do to your own car what you like. What I am tired of is the newbies coming in here saying we cant express our dislike of something they like and call it hate. By doing that you are doing exactly what you accuse us of doing (saying we cant have our own opinion).

I will guarantee you one thing. If you get that kit I will not have a sudden turn around and like it...I will think your car is ugly but it matters not what I think because its not my car. All that matters is that you like it. I am getting sick of having to state this all the time though. I think I will just find one of my many posts I have made similar to this and just link to it every time some newbie says we have so much hate on their ride or whatever.

A good body kit flows with the factory lines, enhancing it. A great kit improves the entire look of the car.

That is neither. It doesn't accentuate any part of the maxima's lines. 2nd gen MAYBE, 3rd never.

That is why only the stillin kit is still being sold after so long. The rest are knock offs being made every so often. With the exception of the wings west stuff but I haven't looked at those kits in a while... are they still being made?
