Yep…do the undercoating. I put 6 layers (3M stuff) on the Maxima and it held up AWESOME through 2 winters. Car looks nice, I just wish you had gotten bigger wheels. Or maybe it’s just the way the body is because those wheels, to me, don’t seem to fill out the fender well as well.

I got bored tonight and decided to throw the lowering blocks in. it took all of 30 minutes. the 1" helped a lot it really evened out the stance. I still think it needs to go a tad lower, however the car only has a 1/8th tank of gas so I’m sure when its full and I throw the back seat in it should be damn close.
