the front would make little chil'ren 
...scary.
less is more? 6 "support arms" are way too many for the lower grille.
what are the holes beside the grille?
It almost looks like you're trying to transform it in a G with the hood and headlight lines.
I think the rear and front shaping would be better if sharper.

Sides and rear get my thumbsup, the front, however, needs to be redone. Another thing to consider is that with 6 brackets, as Justin had pointed out, the fron will require a considerably larger amount of time to prep and paint, thereby factoring into a high cost to treat for those whom might be considering purchasing the kit.

If your serious about making a body kit for the 6th gen then please let me make a few suggestions. What your currently working on is not my style. I'll leave it at that. However if you want my opinion on what would look great on our cars here goes: Some thing CLEAN! That flows with the lines of the car, doesn't break them up like the above PS. A body kit IMO should add to the car, without being noticed...almost look OEM, but different enough to get that second look.
Here are a few examples:
Notice how all of them are simple and clean yet aggressive.

Definitely to aggresive for my personal taste. I like the clean look like Hamy posted, or like the Redlinemax kit I have...
Nice stepping up though to create some different stuff for our rides!!
Oh and yeah those Hamy pics look amazing!!

Cool guys i will work on the cleaner look.. Again thanks for all the constructive criticism... It is an agressive look, and i wanted the first to come out that way so know how to tone it down.. I will work some more designs out... Thanks....

I would buy that Tienna/Max if introduced here. Does it come in black??Max-Ghost, I do like your grill design, I think its one of the best I've seen. Reminds me of my 02 Acura TL which looked great; simple yet agressive. If it had a chrome outer rim with either a chrome or body colored bar across the center, with black mesh in the back and the Winged Nissan emblem in the middle, as Paris Hilton would say, that would be hot.

Okay, first off I almost wish I was back downunder with rides and bodykits looking like that!! (Actually I'm from New Zealand but same diff.) Anyways, I posted on the other MAX site about the Red Line kit I found looking around online because I cannot start a thread here unless I've posted at least 15 times, which tied in with other limited actions like not being able to search, no PM's etc,etc is annoying, but thats a whole other issue. http://www.6thgenmaxima.org/forums/v...938c72021ae722 Needless to say I was really into that body kit until I saw these. My question would be WHY? Growing up in New Zealand we always looked at the USA as being the leader in EVERYTHING!! We all wanted to dress like americans, act like americans and have everything americans had. Now that I have left my old stomping grounds and become a nataurilized american I find myself wanting something they have downunder and not here 
I can't win 
Anyways, I made up a quick photoshop of what I would like to see made for OUR MAX's!!! It is kind of quick and I hope HAMY does not mind me using his car but it gives an idea of what WE can have here in the great US of A

Again this is strictly my opinion but the kits HAMY displayed would appeal far more to Max owners based on the price of our vehicle's and the age of most 6th Gen drivers. Yes we want ground effects and performance parts, but not at the sake of looking like a teens Honda Civic.

rtuimauga, you pic isnt coming through for me.. can you email me the pic.. thanks.. artistic33 @ H o t m a i l . c o m...
I am working on a more subtle look for the max, since the comments really didnt like my forst attempt at a finished photoshop work. Its been difficult for me to have time to do this, but i will have better luck next week (no school on thursday).. I will post the prototpye as soon as i get a chance, just be patient for the pics... Any suggestions please let me know.. Feedback good or negative is deffinately welcome, just please stop using the "RICEY" slang. It is a bit racially curved. No offence to those who have commented before and used that slang, but please be critical, not rude....
