Middle Pillar Trim Yes/No??

Hello Everyone

I was looking on ebay for 2000 maxima stuff and i came across this:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2417541685 and i was just think if any of the Maxima.org members already have this mod and if they do if some one could post some pic's... And share your opion. Of what i can see on Ebay it looks pretty dran nice but that picuters is a little to zoomed in so that doesnt really help.. Well thanks guys you have been a help in the past how you will help now...

Talk to Dave B from what i hear he is the point of contact for all of this stuff. Also you might wanna contact your local junkyard perhaps they may have a Max with these handles and U might be able to pick them up for CHEAP like 15 bux or so. if you need anything e-mail me

there was a group deal on the carbon fiber ones. It might be closed now, but sometimes those companies will still give you a better price. Contact the guy that started the group deal. I believe it was anskwer.

yeah i was loking in the carbon fiber ones, they look good, but i think the group deal went kinda sour, a few people were saying they were cheap, and sucked. anyone have these?

as far as the chrome, they look pretty good, but I dont really like the VQ, and VIP thing's.

pillar trim

Im happy with mine. I too thought the chrome would go good with the GLE theme. I did, however, remove the letters. They are just adhesive material similar to dash kits. I removed the residue with goo gone. The shipping was high because it came from Hong kong directly.

I purchased this set from this site and only put the rear pillars on. The weather has been real bad and they look new, like the first day I bought them. The only problem was the fit. It did not fit well and looked like hell so the center pillars are in my garage still. The rear ones look good but the center ones take away from the style of the car. Once you put these on you can not take them off, that is why I decided not to put the center ones on. Looked cheap in my opinion.
