Now I haven't looked into this yet, but I do have some experience with the parts departments at Nissan. I want to get the AE body kit for my 2k2, and through the parts dept. at a Nissan dealership they usually need a VIN from an AE to get the parts, anyone willing to email me a VIN so I can order them? Or an alternative to that is just telling me some other place to get the kit.

Try https://www.nissan-accessories.com/index.asp, you shouldnt need a VIN# from here. Also, I hope you realize that the front spoiler off the anniversary kit will not fit a 2k2 because the fogs are different.

 

 

No need for the no****, just trying to help a newbie. But next time forget it.

 

Hey, whats the difference between the 2k1 and 2k2 fogs? I was thinking about the AE body kit and thought they were the same...

 

I did too. I like the aniversary kit because its nice and subtle. The fogs on the 2k2 are slightly larger I believe.

 

what i meant to say was this. Are the fog lights able to be reinstalled into the AE body kit. and if not does the rear valence and side rockers look like crap without the front?

 

the rears and the sides should fit, but you'll hafta take off the original sideskirts taht comes with your 2k2.

 

if your car is gray luster then i would be more than happy tot ake themz 2k2 skirts off your hands.. but from your homepage your car looks like it's superblack.

 

yeah, its a super black, sorry. but i do have a family friend with a 2k2 gray lustre. hes into cosmetics for his max as well, and ill keep my ears open if he replaces the body kit.

cool thanx... you knot the ae kits don't come painted right?

 

actually if you check out the link earlier in this post to the maxima accesories page they have the aero kits already painted (at least thats what the site makes one believe).

Does anyone have some photos of how this kit looks?

Also, to contradict other posts - if the front spoiler for a 2k1 won't fit a 2k2 then why on that link is it the same kit for the 2k1 & 2k2???

 

they prolly messed up, i see it all the time.. people listing the wrong years. to the commoners it looks like it'll fit, but to peopel that really place close attention to the maximas know it won't fit. just like how many ppl think they can retrofit some things on the 95max from the 97max without changing out the rest of the components

 

Opinion then: would it be cheaper to buy the AE kit and sell the front on ebay(or where ever) or just buy the stuff seperately from Stillen and get it painted?

i think the stillen kit is cheaper than the ae.. i could be wrong tho.. anyone wanna get this one???

 

I confirmed with the site - its for the '00 - '01 only.

 

I directly compared my car with a 2K2 next to it.
Do they only sell complete AE body kits?
Don't bother with AE side skirts, the 2K2 side skirts look the same except they are one piece instead of two.
The rear valence should fit, and the Maxima begs to have it there.
How about getting an aftermarket front lip or bumper replacement instead of the AE front lip?

 

I've only seen the full body kit. But i thought the side skirts were lower on the AE than on the 2k2? i might just get the rear from stillen if it still looks alright with the stock molding.

 

the ae flares out a little more to the sides and like someone just said it is a two peice.

 

It isnt the fogs that are different its the whole front bumper that is different. The 2K2's front bumper is more sqaured off then 2K-2K1's. That is why the 20th Anni. Kit will not fit in the front. I myself might upgrade to a 2K3, so im hoping STILLEN will get off their butts and design a chin spoiler for the newer maximas.

 

Hey have you guys check out the WWW.custommaxima.com body kit. IT's hot and it should fit the 2002. $-piece kit is only 1000 bucks. Check it out.
