2011 nissan maxima new guy

hello all. tried to post last night but i guess i was so tired i didnt notice this crazy secruity thing u have to do everytime before u do anything. anyway. hello all, just bought 11 maxima sv premium and i am in love. i do have a couple scratches on it from the last guy scraping parking stumps. so got to get the from painted cause it bothers the hell out of me. but the whole reason for this post is, i have a pretty deep scratch on the driver side rear "B pillar" (the black pannel between the windows) i want to replace it but i can only find chrome ones. anyone know where to get repacements and is it a easy install? oh and does anyone sell black mesh lower grills? thanks to kruckus he showed me where to get the upper mesh grill but i really want a matching lower. and last but not least is there anywhere i can buy vossen rims on the cheap? im hurtin for a vossen squitin

Check ebay for chrome ones, just buy and either paint or wrap them in vinyl....you might have to make that bottom grill yourself, a couple guys here on the forum have gone that route and they turned out pretty good...just do a search on here for all that you need, you will find all that you're looking for, trust me!

Welcome! And search will beyour buddy for sure! Ebay or stealership might be your best for the grills...check also classified sections here for any other mods/wheels that people are selling

Welcome. I second eBay and amazon to keep the costs down a bit. You'll just need to shop around. If you want Vossens you'll have to pay up!

The B pillar part you seem to need is likely 80813x, here:

It says Maxima Tape... I agree with Mia_Shift. Vinyl wrap them or paint.

welcome!

check carid for the grilles. they may have what you're looking for.

vossens and cheap do not belong in the same sentence. if you get 'em cheap you got 'em used.

I think you're referring to the Sarona body kit.

ok so i looked into it, and the sv sport comes with a little rear bumper flare, i know its not much but i want it, i was wondering if anyone could tell me where i can get it. Also i had a question about the cvt, when i am driving and have to stop kinda sudden and press the break i feel the car jurk as if i was down shifting to 1st while doing like 50. it pulls the car back, anyone else experience this?

you might be experiencing engine braking... you can get them to disable that at the dealer(probably not all dealers do this). you'll be able to coast/better ride/? with this off:
