I have a lot of spare time on my hands, and I've been fooling around with photoshop, because I've always wanted to be graphically artistic.

It's pretty crude but I've chopped up a picture of my max with smoked headlights (lame) and a "european style" grille.

I know it's uneven and so forth, but keep in mind I'm a musician, not a graphic artist.

i think it has the possibility of looking great.
but if you were to get that grill i would suggest cutting out the bars and putting in red or black mesh. w/o mesh i think it would look terrible.

datz wat i was thinkin

no it would look like a european maxima lol.

Just taking out the hamburger logo makes, it looks the best. Don't do it, plus doesn't your car need more repairs or something maybe you should spend your money on repairing the car first.

not even close

Gee, thanks for the constructive criticism.

Honestly, I really don't like the European grille? I don't really know what it is about them, but, they just stick out towards me so negatively? I like the plain GXE grille with the emblem taken off, but, that's just me? Just my $.02?

I don't really like the actual european grilles but I think I'd like a sort of hybrid similar to what I illustrated. Of course I know I'm to lazy/cheap to actually do it, but I thought I'd throw the idea out there.

i support the idea because i think it would be great to see something different on a 3rd gen. some of the exterior mods we have access to look really nice. Stillen Kit, E36, Mesh US spec grills.
I know i'm a hypocrite because most of the common mods to our rides I have or plan to get. :rolleyes
But I think it would be great to see more creativity among the 3rd gen maxima owners.
Even though we're long forgotten about in the aftermarket segment, we should be getting creative and coming up with new ideas ourselves.
I guess I'll have to step up and follow my own advice. :P

But don't criticize someone for trying something new or different.

Oh there are those that are creative and then get copied. Then you have to come up with something else...its a vicious circle.

tell me about it

i know.
unfortunately that's how it works.

that grill is too much... Stick with stock dude imho..
