um i haven't seen a j30 up close in a long time, but i know the back doors won't fit... totally different shape! i suppose you're looking for front doors?

Nope.




The J30 has rounded front doors by the fenders, the max is a straight cut. Same with the rear part of the front doors, it's angled rearward, ours are nearly straight up and down.

I won't even go into the rear door, that's just a given, as FunLovinMaxima said.

Not quite. I think the I30/I35s are just suspension, engine, drivetrain compatible, not body.



It looks like the front doors have the same issue, the front part near the fender is curved, and the pillars between the two doors are bent backwards.

I30 doors = maxima doors.
J30 doors != maxima doors.

The I30 Doors fit perfect, I put all 4 I30 Doors on my Maxima to give it a luxury closure.. meaning when close the door, dont have to put much force into it :-)
