New Platinum Owner, Questions about Front Splitter

Hey guys,

I just bought my 4th maxima, Traded in my 2010 for a 2017 Platinum with the medallion package. So far, I love this car. I had a question real quick for all you experts out there if you don't mind. I want to put the front splitter on her but I don't know if there is any reason to spend the extra money on the Stillen one versus one I found on
Amazon Amazon
. $143 versus $300 is quite a jump. I'm not opposed to buying the Stillen one as long as there are solid reasons as to why I would want to spend the extra money.

Thanks in advance,

Chris

I was on the fence about wanting a front splitter so I bought that cheap one back in May and it's a POS. After seeing how bad it aligns with the bumper lines I tossed it back into the box and in the corner of my garage. Don't waste your time and money unless you enjoy doing fitment work or paying $$$ to have a body shop do it.

I don't see how unless you got a different one. Mine was INCHES off on the sides and even if corrected then the lip lines wouldn't align properly with the bumper. It was so bad. Lol.
