How about an exact replica of the AE kit for both the '00/'01s and the '02/'03s?

The $1100.00 or so that Nissan wants for the '00/'01s is outrageous. If the cost of such a replica kit could stay within the $500 to $700 range, I would bet you'd have a LOT of interested people...including myself.

And, of course, no fiberglass...go with urethane.

Peace.

Isn't that why the Stillen Aero-kit is out and why MaxxTuning is making a replica of it for the 02/03s?

The Stillen kit is not as subtle as the AE kit. Personally, I'd go for the AE kit if only it didn't cost so much. I guess I like it really, really subtle so the Stillen Aero kit is even too flashy for me.

holllaaaaa

Is CustomMaxima still making the R34 kit? I've been waiting for some word on it, very interested in that. If not, the BMW style kit looks interesting as well, it would be the only other decent full bumper replacement kit out there for an 01. But it seems like theres a vast majority of votes for the 02-03 AE kit...

One more vote for the lip kit/AE for 02/03.

I might even be available for you guys to test fit it using my car if needed.

If I wanted a BMW I woulda bought one, I vote on the R34 front end treatment MaximaZero made a while ago and no one ever produced it.

this is a little too extreme, but somewhere out there on the .org is a picture of the R34 front end MaximaZero photoshopped and it looked awesome ! I think making a 5th gen look edgy like a E36 BMW will make the 5th gen look like some kinda Transformers gone bad - project ! I vote on the R34 MaximaZero kit.

Look at the dates fellas...you're a little late. And IIRC MaxxTuning doesn't even exist anymore, and still "owes" people lips or refunds.

CustomMaxima has no interest in producing the kit. They owe a few people free bodykits for that bodykit contest stunt they pulled over a year ago.

I would love to see another kit besides the Kombat that has a full front and rear bumper replacement. I have re-tread damage to the front and bad driver damage to the rear so stick on or lower valence kits aren't really an option for me.
