Which lip do you like more: Stillen or MaxxTuning?
 
There are mixed feelings about the two. So which one do you like more?

Cubanato 03-21-2004 03:37 PM

i like both
i purchased stillen and then canceled and purchased Maxxtuning though

Stillen- Cleaner more factory look

Maxxtuning- More aggresive aftermarket look

I will wait till I see MT in person. I tried out the Stillen one yest, and it looked sweet.

KiLLeR2002se 03-21-2004 03:42 PM

i ordered both. I have the stillen, waiting ont he MT. Ill decide when i get both. Only hands on comparison pics will decide...

maxGTRvq35de 03-21-2004 04:10 PM

limsandy 03-21-2004 04:10 PM

The MT lip doesn't look right since it's basically the Stillen 00-01 aero lip, modified to fit 02-03. It doesn't match the lower inlets of the 02-03 bumper. Also, to me it doesn't seem to match up to the wheel well. Although the Stillen lip doesn't look as agressive, IMO it looks a lot cleaner than the MT lip.

Hamy 03-21-2004 08:35 PM

Well since I "own" a MT lip I'd like to say that its the better looking of the two. But, I must say that the Stillen lip has a cleaner more OEM look to it. Thats more of the vibe I was going for, but since I've already waited this F'n long for the MT lip i'm going to stick with that.

MaxxTuning all the way. :thumbsup:

ICULookN 03-21-2004 09:11 PM

MT lip got my vote.

You watch fool... I will be back for sure! I got some ideas that would be tight on a Max. I might go for another one, like 02-03, on dubs!!! You watch :king:

NT2SHBBY 03-22-2004 04:22 AM

stillen lip is cleaner and flows more with car lines...MT lip has openings that dont belong on a 2k2-2k3....

stillen lip looks like OEM add-on, like the TL lip kit

AcidReflex 03-22-2004 07:40 AM

Hopefully people will post their MT lips when they get them. I like the look of the MT. Too bad it doesn't look cleaner on the wheel well. So i might end up going with stillen. Maybe stillen/MT can make a lip that has the style of the MT but the clean look of the stillen. ;)

Triple8Sol 03-22-2004 02:23 PM

Both lips looks subtle...gotta wait for some good painted pics of both to really decide...

whoever that has more time can use one of those pix and do a side by side comparison.

WildmanAL 03-24-2004 04:26 AM

Mingo can you take a side shot of the entire car with the lip? I want to see how it compares to everything else. Also how much clearance do you have in the front?

Ammi 03-24-2004 04:37 AM

they both look good. Stillen got the cleaner look while MT got more aggresive look

Igor911 03-24-2004 04:44 AM

I also ordered Stillen first and then canceled and finally paid for the MT lip.

:) Now thats what I want my front end to look like at night.....the Stillen
disappears in the dark....IMO

mingo 03-24-2004 09:16 AM

i'll post the pictures u requested once i charge up my digicam. as for ground clearanc, my lip would eat a parking block thing. but then again that's because i have coil overs. i forgot how many inches i lowered my car. but i'de say i have one and a half finger gaps in the front.

nocsyn 03-24-2004 05:55 PM

dude max tuning all the way...if ur gonna buy a lip buy something a lil noticeable....stillen is just a waste of money...imo...and thats all it is...an oppinion

WildmanAL 03-25-2004 02:24 PM

I kinda want more than an inch clearance in the front and since I don't have a full kit I just ordered the stilllen lip. It's a maxima.... not a catapillar. So why make it look like a bulldozer with the huge gautty front end.

KiLLeR2002se 03-26-2004 07:09 AM

stillen....stillen....stillen....stillen....

hating on it makes it even more appealing;)

cwally 03-26-2004 09:51 AM

Funny thing is, people are asking which one do they like better stillen or maxx? Here is my take.
This first one I don't like because it is less aggressive than the Nissan Anniversay edition lip. If I am going to "upgrade" to the stillen one, I want it to be more aggressive, not less subtle than the factory nissan anniversary kit.
http://www.nissanx.net/gall/alb/killer2002se/1_G.jpg


Next one is the Stillen Aero for the 00-01 model and the other is a stillen looking redesigned by Maxx to fit the 02-03 model. In my opinion its not that it is too agressive, they just redesigned it to fit the 02-03... But then again, I guess you have to like the Stillen Aero (01-02) model since the beginning.

Yeah I kinda am serious. I never said they were the same though. The new stillen one is just not aggressive enough for Me. I think these are more aggressive than the new Stillen one. I think because of this I prefer the Maxx one.
