You are correct.

That thing is not cool though, it's like the sunroof shade, pointless, ugly, and most likely problematic (ie: moss underneath and leaves permanent markings on your car).

look closer...he didnt simply paint the back section he shaved the plastic piece. Painted rear center sections look like butt...the way he did it (shave it) looks good and is the correct way of doing it.

I am surprised no one has commented on his molded in kit or door moldings (then again I havent read the whole thing someone may have). That is a very dangerous thing to do...one bump and its a good chance it will crack but it looks different (in a good sort of way). Not my style but nicely done.

Exactly, yes they are! I shipped them to you after the meet was over. Did you get the package? Everything look good?

Yeah everything looks good, after work I'll lift my engine out and install them while doing everything else (http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.php?t=541287). I am surprised that that the 6 bolts are enough to hold the plenum down without the support of the rear brackets, but if you and others have been driving for a while with these then I'm sure it will be fine.

Oh yeah, the six Grade 8 bolts are plenty enough to hold the UIM on. I just tell people not to jump on top of the intake manifold. lol Support brackets are the first thing I remove when working on customers' car. I hand them the brackets in a zip lock bag and say, "Your car will now be that much easier to work on in the future without these useless support brackets".

I wasnt worried about the weight of it. Without the brackets it can oscillate, similar to a diving board. As long as engine vibrations dont hit any of its fundamental frequencies it will be OK. Those are probably too high for the engine to resonate it, and given that you and others already put down many miles on these, I have no worries.

I, myself have put over 80K miles on my car without using these brackets. Many others have done the same too. It's just nothing to start a thread about.

So you only want pics of 3rd gens with beautiful scenery? I don't have any of those. All I have is pics of a dirty old white 3rd gen capable of 12s with an empty field in the background!

Edit: Here are a couple more pics that I dug up that I don't think anybody has seen much of.

Me and Capecadaver while designing the VG Intake Spacers:

I like the look of the spoiler. I will keep it on as long as I can until it starts to peel, then I'll just rip it off. Or I'll put it on the hood of the car for added downforce on the drive tires.
