do you know how much shipping? and i remember you talking about an account with them before, does it just take a while to get one, or have you not really tried yet? if so, would you give maxima.org members discounts when you do get one, and would those be your prices up there too. also, it that 214 for the side skirts is both of them, then there isn't even a discount for buying the whole kit, it's just the prices of everything together, i thought there was normally money to be saved when buying all of something.

well

I need a $1000 buy in price, so I was gonna have a group deal on spoilers to try and make that $1000 but I noticed that Custommaxima (greg) was gonna have one so I didnt want to cut into his sales and Maxximum Tuning has the kit and I know the owner well so I figured I'd send the sales to MT, Those are the prices they are offering If you have a question about them call them they would know more than I would. I just dont have $1000 to buy in and I didnt fax them my licenses and buisness certificates yet. I'd rather put that money towards having a new kit designed.

Personally, I think the WW kit looks the best for 3rd gens. Though, only the middle slat on the WW front bumper should be cut out and not the slat as well as the bumper in between the turn signals (like this purple WW maxima). His car still looks great though! I still think the front bumper could be a little better, just like the Stillen could but, I guess Stillen and WW are the 2 best kits that there is.

erebuni makes both of those kits. that top one is not like the WW kit at all. the bottom one is pretty much a copy off of the kaminari. ive seen that top kit in person and it looks pretty horrible.

Ive got wings west front bumper here at my house but before I start cutting the slats I was looking and whats behind the bumper in the front??? isnt there styrofoam behind the bumper and if so how are you gonna hide it from being seen after cutting?? I know that you cut the foam out where you cut the bumper but what about the sides around it? ((Ohh and it cost me $220 shipped to my door in 3 days from Nopi))
Thanks

Well, like I keep saying, when I ordered my kit it was a Pacific kit. Pacific Auto went out of business and I am just guessing that Wings West picked up the design from Pacific. You can check out pictures of it, front and back on my website.

This is a good question and I too would like to know how guys are doing that. I've seen other cars modded like that. I saw a cavilier with a modified "wide mouth" bumper...
It's not like you can just bondo it. Maybe fiberglass resin?? Very tricky, though...

it doesn't look like you'll have to do anything REALLY major, from that last pic posted it looks as though he just made the mesh flush with where he cut it.....you might just have to paint the little edges infront of the mesh but thats small change!

.... nothing major? if you're talkin about that purple canadian max, he cut into the actual bumper of the car, so i do believe that would require some nice body work

I'm thinking if you completely remove the metal reinforcements thats atatched to the chasis out from underneath the bumper cover...all thats left to cut and shape is the actual bumper cover. if Bravenet(my pic host) was working I'd show you pic of what I'm talking about on my spare bumper I have sittig in my room.

basically what I'm saying is the bumper consists of 2 piecs, bumper cover and reinforement section...the reinforecement scetion is all the metal, shocks, etc. get rid of that totally, custom cut the bumper cover and BAM there you go! it won't be too safe in a head on collision, but you got your big-mouth bumper!

OK so let me get this straight.. Instead of a foam being behind the bumper there is actually a metal bumper molded into or on the plastic front bumper. So how is the front bumper removed from the car so I can remove the metal bumper from behind it?
Thanks
