New body kit on ebay(LOOK)

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=36475

I like the front bumper although I cannot really see it too clearly. I already called them and asked for more pics, or pics of the side by the fender, but they said those were all of the pics available.

not tooo bad. Isnt that the black widow kit, i think? not sure but i dont really like the side vents that much, doesnt fit the max.

And i just saw the rear...TOTALLY gay, those diffusers belong only on road race cars, not street cars...UGHHH looks so bad...and there is no point of them, they just break up the smooth lines of the max. Please dont get that kit if you want it to be a show car. go with the M bumper, and the sarona rear and ionic or skyline sides, imo.
but its your car and money do what you like!

Actually that is not the VIS octane kit. but the rear looks gay, I like the front except for the edge by the fender, but if I get the front, i might do some work to tweak it to my needs. Yea, I like those other smooth kits, but the prices of them cost both of my arms and my legs...

the front could look good combined with Sadler's sides and a stillen rear valance. The sides and the rear have no hope though. And why is it that body kit companies always put their unpainted kit on a 4x4 height Maxima with either GXE hubcaps or GLE honeycombs.

The whole thing sucks!

I have never seen a good back side of any bodykit, and the best front for Maxima is stillen

different companies call it different names. octane, r34, etc... it's all a copy of one kit but for the sake of being different they call it something else. and yes those are a copy of the (ground design 2000) black widow sideskirts.

A quick photochop. I didn't bother to drop it.. but i gave it some rims and made the car easier to see, blew it up a bit.. and blanked out the side skirts and the gas door thing.. this should give some better idea how the front bumper looks.. I think it looks halfway decent, but note that it needs a new grill from this bumper, and it has no slots for the bumper lights. Also, the kit in this pic looks molded to the car. Other than that, it could be half-way decent. It looks a little like the R34 but not close enough to justify calling it that..

Great Job, well I like the front end, I already spoke to the lady there, and I might get that front and maybe some other sides and rears for $480. and do some custom molding. I dont like anything stock, not even a body kit. :-)

I just wanted your opinions on what this looked like, and if you thought the "front" was worth getting, I dont mind the front bumper lights at all. I dont even use mine, so I am not missing a dayum thing.

Do you guys like the VIS sides? and rear, I remember before that some peeps said they didnt like the front definetely or the rear had some fitment issues. Can you shed some light, cuz I want my signature to be done by around end of march or so.

So one person totally doesnt like the front to this kit, but in either event, my last question was about the VIS Octane rear and maybe sides, I am thinking about this front end in this post, and the VIS Octane sides and rear.
Please advise me of your opinions on the above stated sides and rear.

Never put a Maxima of any sort near or mentioning a comparison with a Skyline, that's worse than dissing off somebody's mother. Regardless of how stock the skyline is or how modded the Maxima is, it's just not fair to the Skyline.
