Just recieved AIT kit number 009 on friday. Fitment was great but we need do minor adjustments. This kit was made really good just like kits made in japan by ings, cwest, etc.

Here are pics of the car all dirty, no edit pictures, using my phone.

i actually kinda like it..not the biggest fan of the rear, but its still ok..but i cant believe im saying this-considering that im fully debadged-but i think your front needs a nissan burger to make it a little less plain, and maybe some work with the front mesh, but with some minor changes i could see it looking really good

DAAN.

I kinda like it too. I like the rear better, than the front. Front reminds me of an generic GTA car... lol or an MERCEDES knock off.. That's not trying to hate, or be neg. its just how it looks to me. But its diff, so i like it for ya.

rims look good and sideskirts look good . the front bumper sort of reminds me of a G35 and with that grill it sort of reminds me of the 2002-2004 Altimas.... the 3rd gen before the facelift.

i think its a clean look, definetly different but thats a good thing, i would say paint the mesh black and put the nissan burger on the front bumper and get some centercaps for those rims

I just got the kit Friday and painted it Saturday. $700 for the kit from aerotrends, $25 for quart paint, and friend came over with his gun to spray it. I choose kit because its simple with no wild holes everywhere. The hamburger logo bothers me and how rear bumper pokes out I did not like. We got the kit and everything for hot import nights but they cancelled. Thanks for positives and negative comments. I did prefer the stock rear and front bumpers over kits.Center cap for wheels are impossible to find. Any can find some for rare ARD 5zigen gt wheels tell me. Found the whole set on honda-tech, and memory fab but cost too much. I should of bought cheap wheels?

I rather spend the money on bride seat brackets and rails then the trunk right now.

Maybe soon the trunk, we only rushed it for HIN along with my other cars but now cancelled so it will look the way it is for awhile.

I am not feeling it, but I think it may be more the wheels then the kit. Hard to tell how things look through pictures though some times.

Make you feel better the wheels are now going be candy magenta with polish lip. While those are off and being rebuilt. We're going slap 17x8 & 17x9 +11 offset work meisters to see how that goes.Car is no where near done, going be more changes.

Driver and owner of this car is female too. Who is my girlfriend, she reads the forum.

Agreed. Looks like a boxy vw. you just lost all of the altima coupes sexy curves.
