People have definitely done the first and third option, not so sure about the second. The guy selling his red 3rd gen (NJMax???) has a nicely shaved.......trunk.
3rd option looks nice. 2nd option is kinda tricky and i don't think no one has ever done it. only way u can do that i think is by installin' R33 tails with the center piece. which i still have to install on my '93.
I cant understand why this mod seems to be somewhat popular... I've personally always thought the original full reflector look adds more... hmmm, class? to the car, makes it look more refined and expensive looking? All down to different peoples taste i guess.

kidding.... I went through some rough measures to get rid of that boxy look. I'm hoping to work on it somemore this weekend.

Seen it done as well and I have the same opinion as #2 on it. Also lose the keyhole.

his work was done very clean and i think it looks really nice shaved completely. i dont think it can be done nice with the reflector still in there.

No love.... I don't have any blue bulbs in my defence!
Honestly, I like the stock look of the SE Max. Some day I'll get around to adding the Stillen front but I think that's about all I'll add. There's just something about a non-spoiler Max that adds a blah factor. Doesn't "look" quick, no matter how much you make it quick. Guess that would be quite a surprise to some. heh
