someone's terribly misinformed... it's only 5.5HP and that's if you get it measured correctly as to improve air-flow along the side of the car

You guys are right about what it adds, but it also adds weight. I couldn't afford the $90 Carbon Fiber stickers so i bought the regular ones. THe extra weight evens out the added horsepower so in the end, it's no gain.

Remember, its only 5.5 at the wheels... but, if you buy 3 or more stickers, you can get alot more!

The admin handing over of the torch thing zapped up a lot of sticker mailing time as jamie and kev had to sort out a lot of stuff by the looks of things.

I ordered mine in mid/early october. He just didn't have any in stock and he wasn't at home that's why it took so long. I predict u get yours during the holiday week or right after.

I thought kevin was taking control of the stickers now?

DANGIT! My sticker now says: " Maxima. PG" For some reason the O and the down part of the R are now missing. It's also the " The Home FOr Maxima Enthusia ts. Guess i'll be ordering another one soon. . .

zogg...aww man, that sucks.

Now I want a writeup on on these things, maybe I will do it?

I heard you have to warm it up a little first before applying, that's why I am waiting because it's under 32 degrees everyday now.

It was 50 degs out here and i used a heat gun in my garage but really quick sweeping on the window glass to warm it up a lil.. but i still lost the last 's' on one of the stickers and didn't notice it. "the home for maxima enthusiasts" changed to just "maxima enthusiast" so it wouldn't be too tacky.

you should have made it say "home of the maxima enthusiast" or "home for the maxima enthusiast"
