What I'm specifically looking for is any photo that has say a 97-99 Maxima with ONLY the front Stillen lip - no skirts and no back. I've seen this on a number of 95-96 models and wonder how it looks on the 97-99 models. If there are none, then a picture of a 97-99 Maxima with Stillen body kit will do, provided that the Maxima is NOT lowered and possibly with stock rims on.

I know it seems like much to ask for, but I want to know what my 99 SEL will look like with say a stillen lip alone or the entire stillen kit before it's lowered and before rims. The reason? - well...I want the body kit first and don't have much $$ so I will have to wait before I get rims and do the drop. THANKS MUCH!

 

Ill look for one

 

i dont think it looks that great unless car is dropped but looks best on cars with mudgaurds.

 

Thanks in advance

 

My 99 SEL is bone stock so far and I do have mudguards. I guess it's hard to explain but everytime I look at my car from the front it seems like it's missing something...I mean, the side look fine for now and so does the rear of a stock 99 Max SEL but I feel like it's definitely missing a piece in the front; hence my curiosity with stillen lip alone. It's sort of "too skinny" in the front...u follow?

 

ok found some of mine when it was lip and 1.6" drop(dont have stock suspension pic but if you can imagine it like an inch higher I guess)


here it is now with full kit and lowered like 2.5" or something

 

I'm very confused now. I guess the front lip alone on a 97-99 doesn't look that good judging from above...the entire kit looks awesome though. The reason I came up with this idea is because the stillen front lip for 95-96 Maximas is kind of thinner and looks better. The 97-99 lip is bigger; hence it sits lower making the car with only the lip look sort of unproportional.

Take a look at Dave B's 96 Max for instance - I think it looks BAD @SS with only the lip...perhaps even better than if he had the entire kit:

 

another stupid question...will a 96 stillen lip fit on a 99? Maybe with slight modification? IMO it just looks better than the 97-99 lip.

 

best bet is to trade a 95-96 bumper and convert to a 95-96.

there are TONS of ppl who are willing to trade you since alot of ppl want to convert theirs to a 97+ and more than happy to work with you.
