Pollen?? It would slide right off with all that wax he put on the car. That baby was smooth. Nice meeting you at the FDR park meet. You forgot to add HID kit to your poll.

I'd go with the AE kit or the stillen classic kit.

Maximized2000,
Fou it was nice meeting you with on sun...I already got price for the AE kit from Daveb. I will check into pricing for a stillen classic kit before I make my decision. As of now i'm leaning more toward AE kit since you kind of persuade me more since I already have 17''. Maybe later on i'll get a hid kit but not right now though.

Yeah AE kit is fine....go for it. Your already have a drop and the kit will make it even better.

Hey...you remember my car right? Should I take off the Maxima and SE badge to make the trunk look cleaner. I might do it this weekend.

Maximized2000,
I would definately take off the GTR babge but as far as Maxima and SE ones it's up to u.

Just for the record...the tiny and I mean tiny GTR badge was there when I got the car. I took it off last night and everything is good now. I'm thinking about taking off the Maxima and the SE badge while I'm at it.

Maximized2000,
that's good i know u told me about the gtr badge being there when u bought the car. Are you going to the Johnson Park Meet in central jersey on July 10th? Hopefully by then i'll have my body kit whether AE or stillen classic. There is still a chance of 18'' wheels in the works.

I will try to be there but I'm not sure how to get there though. I know you went there last year.

Considering any performance mods for power, handling? I'd go for those any day over rims or a kit... unless they are lightweight rims...
