New with 04 Maxima

2 years ago i wanted to add underbody panels to inporve my areodynamics; to become quicker and better mpg. also, i added an aftermarket bumper that no longer allowed my stock "engine splash/aero shield" to fit. so i purchased 2 sheets of polycarbonate.

i had no idea on how to attach it, plus still have not finished the bumper since the lower grille never arrived

well with gas prices i want to finish this project. i found this site along with countless others. but it's awesome to find a forum where people are doing these projects and talking about them.

i posted my thread here http://ecomodder.com/forum/showthrea...help-3465.html

i plan to make a front air dam.
block my lower grille and fog light openings.
divert air entering the main grille to flow upwards (with coroplast).

later i may add diffusers to the rear. i see my gas tank is really low though, so i may just close the gap between it and the bumper cover.

i can get 30mpg cruising on the highway. i ave 20-22 since i do mostly city driving.
