Ive been looking at body kits lately. Like Front lips, Side skirts and rear Bumpers. I want to know What brands you guys like. Also What material do you have on your car i was thinking of geting Reinforced Fiberglass As being in a decent price range being semi sturdy. http://www.sportcompactonly.com/Niss...2778_v-175.htm

 

Are you going to get it professionally painted and installed? That one might save you a couple of MPG on the highway. In my experience body kits rarely look good and are usuallly painted/installed poorly...

 

stillen only, you get what you pay for

 

Yes, i plan on haveing professionally painted and installed.

 

I see a 2000 Max in my area with the full Combat Kit, its painted Grey. I will take some pics ASAP.

 

The one you have posted is a little garish and doesn't really flow well with the lines of the car.

No matter which kit you go for try and find something that keeps the Maxima looking like a Maxima. Otherwise it just looks like you are trying too hard to be a fast car but aren't and instead is just failing miserably with cheap parts that don't fit well.

 

Thats What i was thinking. I still want it to look like a maxima not a honda civic or something like that.

 

why not just a stillen lip kit?

 

I was thinking of buying that for 450?

I think if i just get the lip it wont look good with out side skirts and bummper.

 

great deal, considering i bought my front & rear stillen lips for $400+

 

Allright, Thanks for the help man. I like what your doing with your maxima. Looks good!

 

thanks bro much appreciated

 

You can get the whole Kit from Stillen for $692.00 and the front lip for $205 brand spankin' new!!

AE lip kit & stillen classic lip are the only two that look good on 5th gens. The rest look like trash.

 

Your search for a body kit ends with this post. Everything you need to know is said right here.

 

None. Just get the Stillen ground effects kit.

close thread?

 

+1 more for Stillen classic. Nothing else really looks good.

 

QFT.

 

Everyone that's saying only Stillen or AE kit, how about the Maxxtuning lip?

Even though they're not in production anymore. I think they look decent.

 

Does Stillen even make the lips anymore? Been thinking of getting one from them but I thought they were discontinued.

 

 

The MT lip looks great too....if you can find one. There are guys that did the Mach1 lip, which I think gives that old school look, but subtle.

There are only 2 kits out there worth buying:
Stillen
and
JDubs

There is the AE kit as well, but thats OEM

 

When I ordered mine directly from Stillen, they said they didnt have any in stock so they were gonna have to go make some. They were shipped out the next day.

 

I'm looking for some 01 side skirts AE style and front lip. Does anyone know or selling this parts? best way to contact me is through email ericathompson415@yahoo.com

 

You basically posted the same style of kit I have. Except I have the real Sarona kit not the knock-off. My kit is fiberglass and IMHO do NOT get a fiberglass kit. Get a urethane kit because it is just more versatile. The only problem is I've heard you have to get special paint esp. when painting on the urethane "flex" materials.

Fiberglass may be a bit cheaper right now, but once you factoring the install and prep costs you want to make sure that you are putting a good quality product on your car. The "Kombat" style of kit is really aggressive-looking but I actually go so sick of the front bumper after having it for about 5+ years that I recently swapped my OEM front back on with a blacked-out grilll,Stillen-style lip, and HID fogs.

 

I like the kit you've got....is that the AE kit or a Stillen? Also, what wheels are those. That's one mean lookin' max!

 

Stillen. In canada, the AE's didn't come with any lip kit. Wheels are from an '06 G35 coupe.

 

I think the Stillen is it! End of story.

 

Stillen makes a nice bumper as well. The front Fascia is what it's called. Made out for urethane and sits pretty sick if you have the right drop on your car. (coilovers)

Think there's a picture of it on my sig

 

^^+1 if you want to be different,

how is your car man? dont see you alot any more?

 

Car is good man. I've got a 65 continental coupe that I've been dumpin money into now. Still here just reading and seeing what people are doing

 

I am sure this was answered somewhere but, will a 02-03 Stillen Kit fit a 2000? It looks like the front lip is different but beside that does the rest of the kit fit?

 

Yes it does

 

+1 but you forgot the Maxxtuning lip. The replicas are still made today.


Make sure whatever you get is polyurethane, not fiberglass.
