does anybody have the skyline style body kit?
I saw the Skyline body kit on custommaxima.com. right now, I find it intriguing, just because it stands out a bit more than the Stillen kits.
Do you own one? If so, do you like it? Any issues? Any pics?
Is there any difference between the one on custommaxima and this one that I found on Ebay?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...spagename=WDVW
I'm guessing something must be lacking on this Ebay one, since it's so much cheaper, but I figured I'd ask just in case.
Thanks for any info you might provide.

There are some on here who have the kit.
the ebay ones are drastically cheap but they must be for a reason, no matter where you buy it from it will be fiber glass so that is a negative (in my opinion) mayube the ebay ones are made with less quality than the kit found else where.
My advice if your interested in getting a kit I would get a quality one that you know can hold up to your environment.

ive got the kit but not putting it on till spring, well it is spring, but we're still getting snow, so when it gets nice out i guess. i personally think the kit looks pretty damn good, but it's all opinion. i got a really good deal on it used, uninstalled, and it was in RI so i could pick it up.
yes the urethane ones would be tougher, but u'd pay twice as much and then pay all that money for installing and painting, i just didnt have the money at the time.
that one on eBay looks fine, i mean they're all fiberglass, custom maxima's prices are rip offs. they overprice EVERYthing so i wouldnt be surprised that the kit on ebay is so cheap, compared to CE's prices. but check the seller's winners, and email them and ask if they have put the kit on and how is it. that's my best advice i guess.
good luck

yeah i guess your right
what type of modds are you doing next
