O thats a good idea.. humm... but now i just got to find a method to cutting perfect circles... i should do that with my front head lights too. my car is white do you think it would be cool if i used white to do it. could i take off the glass head light covers that are on there now and paint them from the inside? that would LOOK cool!!! i have never seen a maxima with anything like this, has anyone?

ok here

try this go to http://www.maximaperformance.com and go to "the twins" we did vynil on our taillights and it looks great. if you want a kit that gives you perfect circles go to auto zone or something similar and get a GTS "the mask" headlight.taillight styling kit. Its like 8 bucks or so. you can paint it but use like 4 coats of clear!
