kit looks alright. the front lip just looks a little too much, just doesn't seem like the right front spoiler for the I30 but if you like it that's all that matters...

It looks like the kit that is on Redmax's car from custom maxima. I'm guessing that it didnt fit perfectly and they had to cut and bend etc... The I30 front and the Max front are not the same.

Looks good. The front lip does look a bit much, but I'm wondering what it would look like with the one-piece headlights and the horizontal cefiro sports grill. BTW where'd you get the kit from?

Can't say that I like it much, but I give you props for getting a kit to fit your I30.

its a skyline that i customized to fit my car myself, so its not perfect but all in all i spent less than 600 bucks , i even painted it myslf, just took a lot of work and patience cause it was the first time i ever did body work or painting, i think im gettin those rims soon and i found a way to put air bag suspension on it prtty cheap too. im a do-it yourselfer so it makes me happy to finish projects like that. inspire

thanks for the props

Sorry guys, I thought it was just a lip on the front bumper and didn't look closely the first time. I don't think it matches very well.. but best of luck to ya! It is a 1 of a kind I don't think anyone else is going to do it

if i were you and could spend some money on mods, i would start with getting clear taillights, a spoiler off an I30t, and a drop to go with those rims. and if you have enough, get the 1 piece headlights.

I'm thinkin' about doin' the same thing with another kit. How did you mount the rear lip? Did you just replace the entire bumper? Let me know. Thanks.

aight i took off the rear bumper and started by applying kinda like grill mesh to the back and gluing it on with a high 100%solids epoxy. then i took some fiberglass resin and made a little base that i could add some body filler to to make the mold. then i bolted the kit on the way i liked it taped off the sides of the rear and front quarter pannels, then spread the body filler across evenly, waited like 10 min and took it off and peeled the tape. then a little sanding and molding and bingo it looked aight. 70 bucks worth of dupont paint and and a 25 dollar new sprayer and i figured i could paint it myself too, so i did.

ive got some loot for more mods but that will tap into my partying money for school when i get back so hopefully ill do good bettin at the saratoga race track the next few weeks and ill put some spinners on anythin else holla
