.32 drag and body kits

If the Maxima already has a drag coefficient of .32, would putting on a body kit increase the drag the Nissan engineers worked so hard to limit?

Nothing that a little wind tunnel testing can't reveal. Personally the 3rd gen was way ahead of its time when your talking about drap coefficient way back in 89. Some of these 2000+ cars are just breaking the .29 barrier and most arent't lower than ours. Now with the body kit I don't know if it helps or not my guess would be not, but it sure looks nice.
