I agree, I don't likeit. It's just vinyl over the stock tails.

The kit is a Stillen kit /w spring springs, 2" drop. 18s are coming soon thanx

David's wing seems to reach over the sides ofthetrunk, this wing is flush with the sides. Maybethat's why I like Davids better.

ok here is a little secret

the taillights arent vinyl i promise you that. those taillights are there permanently. he is a good friend of mine and this is a good idea for us 3rd gens since we cant get euro lights. hell I have vinyl on mine and my friend matt's, look here. http://www.maximaperformance.com and go to "the twins" ,it looks alot better up close i'll see what i can get scanned. but we have gotten nothing but compliments from everyone. and if you want something different go get you a custom gts headlight cover kit ( it's stickers) and do one yourself. he even did his headllights and corners , he eventually got rid of them because i believe there is a such thing as to much vinyl. We will be at the next local meet for ohio. me and matt will get that going so we all can meet. If you want to know how the other max was done, you'll have to ask him because its his secret.

Isn't that Maximum5spd's car? I saw it at LSP. It actually didn't look that bad to me, but I think that it would have a better effect on The VE Tails.
