Hybrid car possible??

ok some of yu might bark me down for this but we have the same car as a 2000-2004 maxima but we also like the looks of the 2000 up I30/I35 not would it be possible to take the front end (hood,fenders,front,radiator support,from an 03 max and put them on an I that would confuse the hell out of the service reps at both infiniti and nissan dealerships but mostly this would be for the show scene. maxima front I35 rear

A33 I30's have a line in them that runs from the inside of your headlight back to the tails. It's in the lights and also in your side body panels.

Maxima's are smooth and rounded.

The area around the wheels is different with the Max having more of a lip or fender on it also.

i like to be exclusive so was thinking of the J-dubs kit with the I35 rear and with the ST-R rear skirts so it would definetly be an exclusive "Maxifiniti" or "Infixima"

I'd much rather have a 4th gen with the Cefiro front-end conversion... Not the other way around.
