I'm not sure about the roof wing - what's it look like from directly behind the car?

I do love the side skirts though! Makes for a nice package with the front lip.

Does the stillen lip/side skirt, once installed, hang lower than the bottem of the body of the car. As in if you put on the front lip, will your front end clearence now be smaller?

About 1/2 inch lower but barely noticable

I use to agree with that until I saw it on my car live. Looks much better then the photos. It actually flows with all the curves of the Maxima perfectly

Looks good! The only thought that crosses my mind is if the roof spoiler would look better gloss black since you have that incredible black glass roof.... Seems out of place painted silver in a sea of black roofline.... just my 2 cents.

Very valid point. I kept going back and forth between gloss black and the silver. The Stillen Maxima has it all black and liked it but the body shop guy talked me out of it because he said it would almost be invisible. I like it with the silver now

It adds a nice aggressive look from the rear. I would tell you to go for it.

I like it very much. I will have to consider the Stillen kit. It is very expensive though.

All depends on whether you intend to use this car for display or actually use it for transportation. This 7th generation Maxima has the least ground clearance (only 4.5 inches) of any Maxima ever built. I have not lowered my 7th gen, but have found several fairly normal driveways in my area that I can't enter or exit without the bottom of the front bumper scraping. If I wasn't such a fan of 'good looking cars', I think I would actually RAISE my Maxima one inch, just so I could drive it in a normal manner.

What aftermarket rims are you considering to go with the Stillen bodykit? Get a big enough rim/tire package, you may be able to get away with not lowering your ride.

I like how the splash guards complete the whole lip to sideskirt look.

As far as appearance is concerned I think I am done. Other mods will be the Stillen sway bar and strut tower brace.

I gotta say I kinda like the look of the roof spoiler and the front spoiler is growing on me more and more... I've been trying to hold out for a full body kit but I might just have to jump for it. Although I am still not interested in the side skirts.

Yea I was thinking about the side skirts alot. I love the Stillen Maxima so I said let me try that. I have to tell you if you see the car live the side skirts really look good the way they flow with the hour glass shape of the car. But definately do your Maxima the way you like. Enjoy her!
