Now that actually makes 'tezzas look decent ;)

I like the lo-profile look of that rear bumper, Luke. Now if we could only get the dual-exhaust with the kit But having the exhaust tips line up under the altezza lights looks pretty dang good!

Not to speak for the Maxima crowd, but IMHO I think that looked a lot like the Sarona 5th gen kit, which goes far enough. Too 'boy racer' for my taste.

Winner. That's beautiful, just aggressive enough without being too "boy racer". I love it.

UPDATE!!!!!!

I am here in California, just had two days worth of intense negotiations with several fiberglass facilities. You guys are in luck.... I brought my laptop to the meetings, logged onto this thread and showed all these pics to the factories. Any design is feasible to be complete by spring, we just need to decide on which design we are going to go with.

Got some more goodies in the works too. By the beginning of this summer we will have lots of new products that will knock your socks off.

Each rear bumper design will be available in either dual exhaust or single tip...yes we will also have a bolt on dual exhaust setup available soon to.

I do not have access to my server and cannot upload the new pics to the page but will do it the middle of this week when i return.

More good news, we will have a 95-99 oem carbon fiber hoods in stock in two weeks, vented hoods will be two weeks later. Several different vented designs will be available. Please post any ideas you have for hood scoops.

Got several more days out here in California to work on new projects. I'll keep you all updated on the goodies we are developing.

Thanks,
Greg

Re: Re: This thread just keeps getting better!

on the superloon kit

Too bad any kit will come out to $900-1200 when the truth is that they can be sold for $600-$700.. especially with the use of Southern California molders.

The kits will be sold for under $1000, not sure on exact price yet but we will do our best to keep it competitive.

Projector headligts are still coming along good. Had some more promising meetings and are more postive about the turn out. Our only roadblock since day one was the exorbitant amount of capital it requires to make the tooling. We are almost postive that obstacle has been overcome.

Are you making two sets of projector lights, or are there two Custommaxima.coms?
