R34 Conversion Front Bumper... Anyone have it??

Here it is:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=4515948620

Does anyone have this bumper, or pics of it on a car (other than the direct front shot in the link.)
I think it would be pretty sweet to have that skyline look and still be riding in a max.

nice, but the bumper is too low, if your car is dropped = no winter driving

Needs more AE kit...

Those after market kits are not appealing and looks like rice... surely there has to be other options..

looks like a gaping mouth going down the road. Maybe it looks that way because it can't believe that my stock-looking max just owned it!

There are no good-looking aftermarket bumpers for the 5th gen Max, as far as I'm concerned (excepting the Stillen lip, which is nice and subtle). The rest is

They make civics to "customize" and uglify with hideous bumpers and bodykits . Why do it to a car like the Max?

How could you say that, I mean not all kits are
For instance this kit that latin max has on his car looks good

http://maxima.cardomain.com/id/latinmax

But remember to each his own, what some may not like others do.

OK, not all bodykits are ricey. I'm just saying the ones for the 5th gen are all exagerrated and overdone. They really don't flow with the original bodylines of the car, and detract from it I think. Obviously, this is all my own opinion, and there must be ppl out there who like that and want it, otherwise they wouldn't have them......but ick.

I guess this proves that there are exceptions to every rule. Latinmax's car is simply put, awesome!

Who cares if you get flamed or not, as long as you're happy with it that's all that matters..The thing with modifying a car is that there will always be mixed opinions, after a while it'll get old eh..I'm used to it..Btw I did learn something new haha Thanks for teaching me another word! Still tho the kit looks like the F1 kit for the rsx (integra)...Plus that rear bumper is soooo freaking played out! I mean come on if the front is gonna be different might as well do a different rear bumper too..

i think it kinda looks like mine, except it has a much bigger openning in the front, and its made out of FG, and mine is Urethane. i think it looks toon big for the Max. but i shouldnt talk cus my front isnt all that small either.

To each his own

IMO, its just too much...i like the look of the AE and even the stock 2k2 front bumper...not to mention that thing is so low you wouldnt be able to go over speed bumps (which i do every day) without ripping it off

Looked good when someone on the .org photochopped a pic of it, we made fun of it on i-club.com(now NASIOC.com)

Now I own a maxima, and work for nissan.

Those pics look good on that car, I guess if I saw it in person

I would agree the front end of this kid looks great and it flows even... Side skirts look good as well... I would respect it, however the rear.. I just hate that style and to me it symbolizes rice... You are definately right about "to each his own"

The AE isn't even a real body kit tho, it's just a lip and at least that bk changes the look of the car..That's what bks are supposed to do, tho this one does it in a retard fashion but hey at least they're trying...I wouldn't dish out no more than 500 for a bk or a lip..Lips are pointless to me, rather just change the look of the car than to keep it the same..Too bad all these body kits look the same, especially that rear bumper..Stupid rear bumper...

a body kit isn't supposed to change the look of the car, it's supposed to enhance it. It should blend in with the lines, and exageraate what the car looks like. These outlandish copycat body kits are tacky. If a car wasn't intended to have a look, and it doesn't fit the look, it's retarded.

That's why I hate the R34 BK because it's for every car out there even a slow *** honda..I mean what's the point of making your car look like another car? I wish there was a real body kit to enhance the Maxima, not just a lip, but a whole front and rear bumper..Eh

the r34 bumper would look a lot better with the octane kit versus the sarona/erubuni sides and rear. just my opinion...
