Euro Spec Maxima Bumper

Does anyone know if a bumper from a 4th gen European Maxima will fit on a US 4th gen Maxima???
The Euro Max is just like the infiniti i30 in the states.

(reason for asking is license plates are different in europe)

No, you'll need different hood and fenders to fit the different bumper.

Afaik the Maxima and I30 bumpers, including European versions are not interchangeable. There would definately be some work needed.


Edit: What he said....

Sorry. I meant the rear bumper.
So there's no easy way to just do a swap for a rear bumper?

most cars in europe are listed as their luxury model counterparts. like i was recently in spain and saw a acura tl that was an accord. this happens a lot so that people think that the cars are of equal quality of bmercedes and bmw (not saying they arent), so just because it might say infiniti I30, it could be a nissan maxima, especially since maxima is smaller. smaller=better in most of europe. mercedes the size of a sedan civic go for 40k+ in spain

This reply wasn't much of a help.
But yes Acura=Honda (btw: accord is like the tsx in the states, not tl)

my maxima is too big as it is, especially for parking lots in front of shopping centers, the parking spaces are too narrow.

nothings wrong with kia.

anyways, i used to have acura tl and swapped everything to make it honda inspire, i would give props if anyone does another country's spec... very unique in it's own way.
