I am now a maxima member and I was wondering what you guys thought of my car.

Just wanted to say hey to everybody out there and I'm glad to be a member. Take a look at my home page and tell me what you think. I'm going to take better pictures to put on the page, but these were just to get my page started. Oh, one more thing, how do you post a picture of your car automatically every time you post a thread? C-YA!

WOW!! Very nice!

How did you get the back bumper sides to NOT stick out so far?

Did your body shop "shave" it or did you put 10-inch rims out back? Basically, what did yo do to make the rear tire match up with the rear bumper?


Man I wish I lived near Florida, because that is the cleanest body kit install/paint job I've seen. How much did they charge you, if you don't mind?

Thanks. Again VERY SWEET ride.

thanks bro. me and my friend put it on, and my friend painted it for about 350 (which included him helping me put it on). i had to shave the back a little because when i got 20's i rubbed a little. we also put brackets towards the bottom of the fender to keep it tucked in. the kit is really supposed to stick out which i didnt like. trust me, things always look better from far away, but overall it did come out pretty nice. one thing you have the remember about aftermarket. IT NEVER FITS PERFECTLY, YOU HAVE TO MAKE IT FIT!! thanks again.

Don't open the picture itself that is not the address you want. Just right click on the pic and click properties, then go to profile & in the signature box put the website link --- in front of the adress put [img] and in back put [/img]. When you're finished it will look like this.

[img]put the address in here[/img]

Thanks. Can you take a picture of the "brackets" you used to keep the bottom of the fender tucked in? Did this cause any problems with creases or ridges in the fiberglass?

Sorry for all the questions, but I have seen this kit in person and it looks like a parachute for the rear. That is the ONLY reason I would NOT go with this kit. I was hoping, more like praying, you would say that Ninja pulled their head out of their **** and remade the rear bumper. Oh well.

Thanks again!

You should post the rear 1/4-panel too.

I bet a lot of people will be interested in how you tucked it.

Some web servers dont support free web hosting so you might have to rename the picuture file you uploaded from .jpg or .bmp to .txt This basically tricks the web server. That should do the trick!

yes it is. i had it done at a local car audio place. its made out of vinal. i dont know if they make a kit for a double-din now, but they didn't back then. plus, the vinal looks alot better than some piece of plastic. double-din is definately the way to go; it fills that huge space. that kenwood head unit was the nicest 2din i could find.

as far as height, just make sure you get a 35 series tire. as far as the width, i have 8.5inch rim and im fine. you may not want to go wider than that. all i had to do to my car is shave the back fenders a little. but if you dont have a ninja body kit then you dont have to worry about it. plus i have eibach lowering springs. you'll be fine.
