Hey Romney, my day is going pretty well!
The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11264 only fits a 2004-2008 Nissan Maxima so we'll need to go with a different solution for your 2002 model.
It doesn't look like there are any custom fit options made for your 2002 so what you'll need to do is have a shop use something like the Curt Weld-On 2" Receiver for Custom Fabricated Hitches # E17 to make a hitch for you.

Hey Romney, how did things go with the custom hitch setup for your 2002 Maxima? Your update could make it easier for others trying to add a hitch to an older model.
