I tried to scan it with my feed scanner,and the paper got a little messed up, so the pics are bad. I bought a flatbed today. You can still make out the slots though.

what? i love the new body kit and plan on getting that fairly soon...just a quick question though...has anyone contacted spoilersetc? i noticed that on the kit, we no longer have front or rear sidemarkers (i know thats illegal but i really don't care about that aspect) and the front doesn't have any foglight holes for the stock fogs...anyone know if they are making another front or anyone want to buy my stock front/rear bumpers and my sidemarkers and my stock foglight set?...just wondering...i'd want a rear end from spoilers etc and a front end from maxima_zeros photoshop kit

with some work, my photoshopped kit is possible. im pretty sure a place like dc conversions would mold on a stillen kit and widen the air dam. i think i like that fton kit from spoilers etc. im not too sure bout the rear tho. what you can also do is get the side markers molded into the kit.

Looking at that kit, don't U guys think the rear sticks out a bit too much on the sides? U'ld need some serious rubber to fit those wide *** fenders.

i mean...the front looks ok(except for the fact that we can't have the factory fogs...) but the rear sticks out too much and looks too aggressive....

i'd still buy the stillen kit...but this is just my opinion.

Ive been asking this for a while now.

Could we build a hybrid kit? The Front end of this kit and the stillen rear. I'd put new foggers in there. Same size as the stock and side by side in the middle.

Oh, and by the way MaximaZero. Im playin wit adobe 2nite and am going to give your kit some competition.

what is wrong w/ you people? i am not a big fan of the front end but i love the rear end...i'm actually thinking about just getting the rear from that kit and waiting until a company comes to its senses and makes maxima_zero's front end and get that...just my taste though

don't mean any harm maximazero. but that kit you designed is going to look awkward or can't be built. i personally think it's a cool kti i'm a fan of the large opening in the front but the peice above the opening can't be thin like that since there is a metal structure that is hella thick behind it. i considered on making a kit with a large "MOUTH" in the front but then i looked further into the car and found it wouldn't be possible unless the bumper extends way down which would be scrapping 24/7 with just an inch drop to the car. but either or it was a great idea but i just thought it might have been helpful if i pointed that out. i'm still trying to get off my bootay to develope a prototype kit that will hold the original theme of nissan yet provide (hopefully) more downforce and a sportier look without the agression.

kinda thought the same thing. not saying its totally possible to fabricate it, but what if you widen the mouth by moving it up higher towards the grille. that's how i did it in this pic. that's also the basic concept of most kits with big mouths.

I have emailed and called spoilersetc.net and the bas$#!^# have not called back emailed me back or anything. I guess they could give a $hit less. Go with the Stillen and put spoilers out of busines. HAHAha

well as i was observing your photoshopped picture i've also thought that one way to make that work (widening the mouth by pushing it up towards the grill) without the frame from showing too much is; paint the frame that is exposed flat black and install a grilling material that is painted enamel black and all would be lovely.. oh and of course the part that overlaps the frame has to be alot thinner as in the grove can't go too far into the car. but then the grill looks somewhat like the accords..

Hey guys!!

I'm not sure if it is just me, but this kit looks REAL similar to the Rear end that Kenwood put on their 2000 Maxima. The Purple Max was featured in Import Tuner mag a few months ago. Taking a look at the pics in that mag, the rear end looks really good (especially if you wanna show off the exhaust.) I left my copy of Sport Compact Car at my boys place lat night, but as soon as I can get a hold of him, I'm gonna have him find the number for Spoilers Etc. and give 'em a a call. Hopefully I can get a good price on it.

If anybody else hears anymore about this kit...Please, let us know. Also, when I get home, I'll try to get some pics of that Kenwood Max up.

Peace!!

Ok Guys,

I just got in touch with someone from Spoilers Etc. and they have informed me that the complete kit, whcih includes the frot, rear, and sideshirts will set you back $695. All the parts can be ordered separately, but will cost more. What I am thinking of doing is ordering the rear from Spoilers Etc, and picking up the Stillen front end (I wanna keep my stock driving lights.) Yuo guys have any suggestions? Also, if anyone wants to get a hold of Spoilers Etc., the number is 713-921-7112.

Peace!!

well i just ordered the full kit and w/ install and paint it will set me back $300 because i was hit and insurance covers most of it...kit is $695 and unless you live in texas, shipping is 120...shipping is the same whether you order just the front so its a better deal to order it all at once...front by itself is 295, rear by itself is 295 and sides by themselves are 225...if you buy the kit all together it costs 695...it should be on in less than 2 weeks (just ordered it yesterday) so i will post pics for sure
