Congrats!

You can get a new front bumper from ebay painted and shipped within $300. Check this out http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NISSA...spagenameZWD1V

For hood, door, fender and fog lights, check out http://www.nissanpartsonline.net/

Some of the parts for 07-08 are different from 04-06, such as front bumper. So make sure you buy the right parts. Best of luck.

Congrats on the purchase. I realy love the look of the 07-08' Maxima(09' either )
As for the parts. Just the fender and door are interchangeable. I mean they would fit any 04-08' Maxima

The door-assy is absolutely the same. Just swap the rest from your old door to the new one

The hood, headlights, bumpers, and fog lights are NOT interchangable. The headlights and the design of the front of the hood and bumper is diff in the 07-08 than 04-06. As for the keyless thing, I think it's a feature on the door handle, but I could be wrong. I suggest calling the local dealer about the keyless thing on the doors. A fellow org member converted the 04 to an 07 look, and he had to buy the 07 hood, lights, and bumper to convert it.

I hope this helps :-)

Dealers aren't really the most honest & trusted place on earth... I got screwed over big time by one. Anyhow, all you need to ask them is if the keyless feature of the 08 is in the handle or is it a wired device that's installed in the door... see what they say. Based on that, you can choose between the 04 door or only an 08
