2000-2003 AE rear valance replica GD!!!

Hi guys!!

Yes that's right!! We at Ionic Dynamics just made the 2001 AE rear valance replicas. These replicas will be the same 3 piece design as the OEM version, they will install using double sided tape along the top inside edge and factory screws on the bottom, just like the factory units.

Special thanks to KRMAXIMA for starting this project and taking the time out of his busy schedule to help make this product available for the maxima community.

The Group Deal price will be set at $199 SHIPPED within the continental USA, this is less than half of what the OEM rear valance costs.

Optional paint service IS available for an extra $120. This option is recommended for people who just want to receive the rear valance and install it. Please keep in mind guys that these are 8 year old cars and that the color match might not be perfect due to sun damage, remember this will be new paint. Paint service usually takes 5 business days. To purchase a painted rear valance please PM your paint code so I can provide a personalized order link.

Here are some pics of the replica, color matched perfectly and installed on krmaxima's car:







If anyone has any questions please feel free to PM me or make a post here.

GD OVER Thanks!!

Local pickup will be $180. From what KRMAXIMA told me is that it lines up perfect, so it should just be the pic, and angle of shade. BTW the bumper is plastic and should flex as needed.

No other pics for the moment.

Thanks!

how long will these be 199 for? And will you have any issues keeping stock in another month or 2 from now? I showed interest (one of the first) when krmaxima first mentioned making mass copies but I need to pay off some CC debt first and then I will def. buy it. let me know, thanks

And what color do they come unpainted?

Also, I know the OEM one requires drilling holes in the rear bumper to be installed. Is this the case with the replicas as well?

They will be $199 for just the group deal, we just want to get enough out there so people know that we are making the replicas

They will come either in a grey or black gel coat, depends on whatever is on hand.

I know what holes you are referring to, and no those will not be required. Only double sided tape along the top edge and screws on the bottom factory holes.

Thanks!!

When you open the link there's a part that says: Don't have a PayPal account? Use your credit card or bank account (where available). Continue, Click on the continue link. Don't use the credit card that you had on file with paypal, it will be blocked by them. Please be sure to provide your credit card billing address for the delivery, we will only ship to that address.

Thanks!

Still debating rather or not I should get it because I would have to move my muffler more outward and that's gonna be pita. But only $199 is very tempting!

lol thx. at this price its definitely a go for me but just a matter of time. i've been wanting an AE but couldn't find a good one when i was in the market. imma gonna check the paint shop i go to but i'm sure it will be cheaper than $120. i'll probably push my muffler out a bit to sit flush wit the kit so i can scrape front and back lol but that can wait.
heard u going matte black? no more KT3 for you


and btw, what kind of material is it made out of?

I would be happier if you made the whole kit but in CF. I would go back to my stock bumper for it.

Hello everyone sorry to comment so late but was in vegas this whole week. But yes the paint is perfect and also the valance is a very good fit as good as the OEM one. It all depends on how you install it. Since the double side tape is sticky it is hard to adjust once on the bumper. For 199 it is a great price since the oem one cost 500. anyways ill try to get more pics.

and yes you have to get the AE mud guards and not sure if they will fit i didnt try.

I want to personally thank you krmaxima for doing all of this. This has been a long overdue product. Nissan doesn't even really stock this product anymore, so this is definetly a worth while product. Can't wait to get it on to cover up some rear bumper damage I had.
