So I'm looking into getting a daily driver and since I've owned a few Maximas before, I'm looking to getting one in the near future. I'm curious as to what some have done to their Maximas since they bought it. Post some pix by all means, I need to be inspired to get one soon.

Hello Fairlady Z!!!
I added the Rear Decklid Spoiler and the Roof Spoiler myself along with the little Stillen Logo over the License Plate Frame, I got 20% Tintz all around and an FSTB, an RSB, and it is Chipped with a Power Pup from Bullydog w/Logos on the sides.
Here's the back of my car, I figured I'd give you this pic because this is what most cars see when they're trying to race me. LOL

I hope you are a little bit inspired to make one your daily driver, pics really do not do this car any justice at all and it isn't until you see it in person that makes you say "damn, that's hottt"!
Hope you join the Maxima family here Bro.
Good luck

That looks nice. I'm adding the spoiler next week. Your absolutely right about having to see the car in person. I don't think I've owned a car before where people just walk up and start asking questions, commenting on how good it looks 'in person'. Its kind of nice The only other car that came close was my MR2 Turbo, but that was mainly because they were scarce in my neck of the woods.

upper spoiler looks good. was it hard to install? who did you have match the paint to the body? did you get from stillen or is there a better source?

My car got hit 3 weeks after I bought it last year and the place that fixed it already had the paint codes for the Radiant Silver so I just took the Roof Spoiler over to them to get it painted.
It comes with Double-sided Tape already attached but I also used Permatex to help seal it even better.
Is that the Stillen Roof Spoiler?
Yes, it is!!
Thanks for the compliments, it is still a work in Sloooow progress.

Is that the stillen roof spoiler in your second pic? rest of the pics look good. Was it difficult to install the lower grill? How come you did not use the top grill? That would have been my choice.

Yes! A shop did the lower grill for me, it looks easy, and I didn't really like the top grill, hoping something nice comes out in the future and then i'll get.
these are pics of the Stillen install progressing. Sorry for the dark photos as these were taken in a dark garage

Stillen Sway bar
it's hard to get good photos of it installed, especially when I don't crawl under there. I will say this, the OEM sway bar (black) is hollow, the Stillen (red) is solid and weighs at least twice as much.
Overall results:
The car is definitely tighter, but I haven't done much yet as I was and am tired.

I see alot of people have the stillen strut bar . How's everyone liking it, any noticeable difference ?
I can't comment on just the strut bar as I installed the sway bar at the same time. But in my case, there is a world of difference in stability and handling. I used to think this kind of thing was crap, but I am now a believer. The best part, my combo cost (i think) $360 and I got more than my monies worth in performance return

i agree with you on that. i too installed both the sway bar and struct bar and i feel a difference in the stability and handling...
A few pics of my '10. Most of my mods are listed in my sig.

I have the Racingline strut bar and it definitely made the steering more responsive. After adding the rear swaybar and Eibachs the car handles much better than stock.
