It reminds me of something that I would've wanted on my Sentra when I was 16. I don't think it's ugly now, but it no longer fits my taste.
We fitted it on mine, but the color was photochopped in courtesy of Irish. Incidentally, it's made of really, really freaking good material and is pretty thick for the application. Corey and I had it perfectly fit to my car in around an hour. Pretty easy to do, but if I were to put it on myself, I'd fit it first, send it out to a shop to paint, and then put it on as you'll have to drill two holes on each side for the screws to hold it on and dremmel a little on the top inside to clear the latch. Nothing big, but you'd want to do it without the paint so you don't screw it up.

I think it looks ok, but I am sure it looks allot better in person than in a picture.

Personally I like the kit allot and if i had the money i would get one.
I remeber seeing that kit in a car magazine like in 2002, was it yours?
Im surprised i dont see more people with that kit on here, it is the best overall looking kit for the maxima in my opinion.

only one gripe...nixed the side markers...should've kept them. you cant do anything about that, but other than that, the kit looks great. As for the mesh...i would run it diag vs up and down. i am surprised that it looks so thin in the pics...that mesh is heavy...and expensive. i'm not a kit guy, but i like it.
note to self: as long as i like it...phak em!

i bet the sidemarkes can be cut in there if you want by a body shop or by yourself if oyu are skilled. put some fogs in there as well and you are good.
