I thought about that. I saw a 5th Gen Maxima like that as it wasnt bad. Also the Altima in the post above - #18- has that look. It seems a bit "chopped up." Look at the G/Z pics above and they have the same lip with the larger gap in front. Its more functional when the splitter goes across the front. The guy in the 4th Gen forum felt the splitter working at 50 mph and really felt it working at higher speeds. Chopping out the middle piece would minimize the functionality of the splitter.

Finished quick mock up here It may take me more time to do a side view though. So I might finish it for ya tonight!
I kind of did it to match with the stillen lip that you have. Let me know what you'd like changed or if it's good to go.

I think it's a decent looking mock up. I don't even mind the turn buckles, although they would probably need to be a little "beefier" in all reality. Those look like twigs that could snap at the first sign of trouble LOL. Still, good photochop work Jess!
p.s. CF would be spensive, but SHWEEEET!!!

Deus I can't get the wind splitter to look right for the side view
Corrected the front view of the splitter instead of all the angles...
And here's a website, they make custom ones too

I bet it would look great if done right, LOL now loose that wheel gap...
Yeah, I was examining the pics just now and looking at the G/Z splitter in the above pictures, and I trimmed the sides. How does this look?
Also remember, the final product will be black so it will look MUCH narrower. It only sticks out about 2 inches at the front and an inch or less on the sides

i don't know, deus - i'm honestly not feelin' it but to each his own. if it makes u happy and if you think it looks good, then go for it brother - i personally like the way ur car looks now. if you really wanna do the hood, then don't do the splitter - it doesn't flow with your stillen lip and in regards to the hood, avoid those side vents if u can, it looks better OEM. that's my opinion, rest is upto u G'Luck !

If you get a hood and splitter like that. I would hump your car.
That makes your car look absolutely amazing, there is no way you can call that a 6th gen maxima anymore. Both you and chern have taken it to another level and another level after that, thats just how impressive your cars are.

I considered these but didn't because it seemed to aggressive . . yes believe it or not I do have my limitations. The bottom cannards look good and more streamlined, but still look a bit tacked on.
