And it begins!!

Got my 17 Deep Blue Pearl SR on sept 7 and have since de-badged trunk, and added some led bulbs. I received some goodies in the mail today!! Will be getting springs installed tomorrow and will have him install fog light bulbs for me as well since he will have it up on the lift anyways. Next week is a complete chrome delete and clear bra to keep the rock chips away. Then next month stillen exhaust, intake, and strut bar!! Looking forward to more suspension parts becoming available. And maybe a supercharger in the future lol

Didn't know there was a strut bar option yet. I know I just did the rear sway bar.

I went with the 6k, as I searched on here and that seemed like what most were saying was the best match.

I've seen other folks use the strut bar from the 7th gen so that's what I'm gonna go with. What rear sway bar did you use and do you have a part number pls?!!

Great. Thinking of maybe doing the headlights too but that might be too much.

Threads merged. No need for separate threads for every little mod you do. Thanks, and congrats on the Max.

Why wouldn't it be drivable with a supercharger?

It's a moot point because there will never be a supercharger for the 8th gen Maxima...
