maxima wide body - anyone do this
You have to get a 6 piece flare kit to work on a Maxima. 4 piece flares really only work on 2 doors. If you look at the pic, you wouldn't be able to open the rear doors if you installed those flares without cutting them down.
In another month, my car will finally be done and painted and you'll see what I'm talking about. But be prepared to spend a couple of grand in body work to get it right. It may only be $98 for the flares, but they don't actually fit the Maxima. it's just "universal" ones that you have to extensively modify to work. You'll have to cut them into sections to match them up to the wheel arches, extend them in some parts, cut them back in others, refiberglass, and mold to the car.

This would not be your "out-of-the-box" kit, that's for sure. lata! -Jeremiah
well if u put them on unpainted then u can go and get some 13" 150 spoke gold rims and make them stick out about 3 miles and put them on......that would just look beautifull. but other then that they look ALRIGHT, i think if they actualy had the real reneder flares would look alot better. Im not drilling no fuccing holles in my fenders.
