I'm thinking of adding a new wing and taking off my stock one. I saw this nice wing w/ alluminum footings. Its made by TC spoilers. Its sorta like the apr one's but its a single deck. I was also looking at a wing made by Kusco. What kinds of wings do u guys like? Big or small? Crazy or not?

great idea but...

have you considered on the fact that you might need to repaint the trunk? i dont' know of any spoilers that can match up with the holes of the existing spoiler. i wanted one too, but then i thot of that problem. we got three holes for the stock spoiler, u might need something like the lancer evo wings, it has a base to the spoiler than the spoiler, those must work real well but makes the max look like a killer whale. up to u, different strokes for different folks..

Wings, Smings... Waste of Money.

Why spend that extra $200+ on a spoiler that, in most cases, doesn't follow the lines of the car? I'm anti-rice...can you tell? Keep the stock spoiler, but, if you do decide to swap it out, i'll buy your stock one. Also, Maxima is FWD. deck spoilers help increase downforce to the rear of the car. At high speeds, the deck spoiler is pushing the back end down, and helping push the front end up, reducing traction to your drive wheels. Better: get a chin spoiler that helps increase downforce to the front of the vehicle. Best: Leave it alone.

wing

I'm trying to sell my wing too. Give me an email at flyhigh123@yahoo.com I plan on filling the holes and repainting my truck. If i sell to someone in So. CAl w/ a black 2k max, maybe we can trade trunks to save us both on the cost

I would have to...

...agree with SCCA. I prefer a car without a wing. Granted the stock wing on the Maxima doesnt look too bad, but I still like the clean line of a sedan without one. Hell, look at the new BMW M5. Pretty much an unnoticeable wing...then look at those that take the Dodge Intrepid and add an ultra high Supra wing. To each their own. Nice looking hart rims btw, and SCCA, I believe yours is the white Max with white rims...pretty sweet looking. Hell, they all are.

ehh who am I kidding...I just like any of the 2K Maximas, in any trim form-stock or modified.
