R34 bodykit

Hey guys i was wondering what do u guys think of the maxima R34 bodykit front bumper from VIS? Does anybody have that kit on? I see 1 guy from cardomain that has that one but unfortunately he's the only one with the kit that i seen so for. The pictures they got of the r34 kit on vis is the same car from cardomain I was thinking if i should get it or not. But i really dont like how big the mouth is. It really looks like it can swallow a whole dog in there. Also wondering how low is the kit. Help me outs with some opinions

IMHO....gross!

might be "ok" if you have an intercooler to fill up that giant gaping void.....than again, actually it would still look

IMO only an R34 should have an R34 front end...

It's kinda stupid that the front lip comes down so low. I think a pebble in the road could remove it. Stillen still makes the best looking kit in my opinion.

It seems like the lines of the bumper are not fit to the headlights making them look out of place instead of apart of the car. I hope that isnt the final attempt because I am sure someone else could do a better job at that bumper. REALLY!!

haahaa all the replys here are funny. I guess im too used to my old civic, im too into the ricey look. I spent lots of time on my civic and also i had the r34 body kit buuut i ended up having it totaled so now i got a max but im happy about the max. But all that habit about fixing up a car is comming back to the max. But also i luv the nissan skyline. If u guys come down here why dont u guys hit up torrance they have a dealer for skylines thats my fav car but dayums thats just my dream car it cost way too damn much.

Not that I would get it, but I think it looks way better than the Octane and Sarona fronts. It's not as low as you think...look at the curb. Also looks better without that thickazz splitter...

Maximanismo, Let me tell you what I think. I think it looks pretty good as long as you dont get the entire kit.. then It looks ricey (like the cardomain guy). I think you should be fine as long as you have other mods like lowering and nice rims in mind... But one thing, doesnt fiber glass tend to crack easily?

um....yes. Your point? But a maxima-wannabe-skyline with that ugly-*** kit won't. It will be too busy sucking the entire universe into the front end of the car.....

by the way, there are plenty of cars out there that would "whoop my ***".....and if I could afford them, I wouldn't be driving a maxima....

btw - I'll take an Aston-Martin DB7 over a Nismo ANYTHING any day of the week and twice on Sunday....may not be as fast, but far far sexier.

It looks too complicated, coz it got too many holes. There are 10 holes for that front bumper.

True that lumbee im abb here(anybody but bush). Oh yeah by the way irish i know how u feel if i had the money I would buy my *** the porsche gt 2. But over here in kali if u just roll by beverly hills youll see lots of dealers with them high over priced european cars, such as ferarri, lamborghini, and the aston mart. But the thing is im sure anywhere in the states they will have those cars at those high luxurious dealers, but u wont see a skyline in none of them. Theres only 1 or 2 skyline dealer in the u.s.

In the mid-90s I drove an Aston Martin Virage(while I was in Germany). Took it up to 230 km/h on the autobahn. It was so smooth it might as well have been going 25 mph....the interior quality is indescribable and everything about the car is absolutely gorgeous.....not a rattle, shimmy, or squeak to be found.

Skyline may be fast, but can't match up with the "high over priced european cars" in terms of style and beauty.........
