Are there any pics of it yet? I'm in the market for a kit, just bought me a 2k2 Majestic Blue 6 Speed. I was thinking about geting the Kombat kit unless this one looks better.

Can you elaborate further? Is this a full bumper replacement, if it's just a lower lip, will this be for the 2k-2k1 or 2k2-2k3?

It is a complete full front and rear bumper replacement first available in fiberglass then availalbe in urethane later in the summer. Designed exactly as the kit you guys voted on. We are also producing the wing you all liked too. In the coming weeks I will post pictures and offer special pricing to Maxima.org members since the design was your idea anyway.

We actually pushed back production on the new 4th gen kit to have the 5th gen kit done first....shhhhh don't tell the 4th gen guys.

Z3 and F1 type fenders will be done too!!

teddibear703 thanks for your assistance in prototyping our new kit, free kit coming your way soon.

What about pricing?

Being that they are being made of fiber glass, will they be priced similar to the kombat kit?

Custommaxima could you provide "ball park" prices for the kit?

Is this kit only for 2k2? or 2k/2k1s too? After I see some real pics I'd consider those sideskirts instead of my Stillen ones. Maybe even the rear valence... heh. Depends on how it looks really.

Few things....
1) Also can't wait for urethane
2) This kit might put CustomMaxima.com on the map.
3) Who wants to try and mimic these tailights? Should look somewhat similar to what (i think) emax or BioMaxDDS did with their tails. (Spray red paint in the amber half-corcle of the 2k2's)

It looks interesting. Too bad my car is already fixed - I had to buy new front and rear bumpers. If this came out earlier, I could have had a ground kit for little to nothing.

the front bumper reminds me of an audi...

gotta see it in person

someone should make those tail lights too, they look real nice, but make sure the whole thing lights up, unlike those altezza's for the 4th gen where only half the circle lights up

What about a spoiler like an M5 or Jag or IS300? The one that is just a lip and doesnt come up off the trunk.

Greg,
One question on the grill opening...I believe there is a difference between the '00-1 and '02's. I have heard that the 02 grille is a bit smaller. It's not like we have a grille from our '00-1 bumpers we can throw in the the new opening because our factory bumpers are one piece. Is this making any sense? Or ae we getting that grille just like the pic as part of the bumper? Crap its 828am and I'm going back to bed.
Harry.
