Unless it was in a rear-end collision that knocked all of the black-out trim, the fogs, and the wheels off (and they were replaced by inferior parts) I have to say GXE w/ SE gauges.

I thought unless you had HIDs the only way you could change color output on a bulb would be to paint them, and even then the temp would stay the same.

(hopefully jus like u)

And I can't see the rest of your car in your pics but I assume you have chrome doorhandles (a sign that it is a GXE) and you probably don't have fatcory fog lights (a sign it is not an SE). Give it up bro., no one is going to beleive that someone bought an SE and traded out the window trim, took off the spoiler and filled in the holes, downgraded to hubcaps, etc., etc.... Just accept it, change your sig. and stop being stubborn.

Just because you know more about a car's trim levels than someone does not make you a better person. Just because you have different tastes than others does not make you a better person. Just because you drive with a clutch does not make you a better person. It also, in fact, does not make you any smarter.
Whooptie doo, you are all more experienced and knowledgeable on the Maxima. Would you like a cookie? Does that mean you can pick others apart that are just trying to start on the same path you did? Does that mean you can block the passing of information on to others so that they can learn, instead opting to poke and riddle them simply because they don't know as much about the Maxima as you?
He's just starting out, like all of you once did. Do him a favor and help him out constructively instead of being flame-throwing eThugs.
To the ones who actually had more to say than "why do you only have 2 pedals?" and fill your posts with sarcasm,
. To the rest,

this reminds me of a meet that i went to not too long ago. on the thread that was putting the meet together there was this one big mouth mouthing off to an out of state member that was riding up for the meet.. so, on the day of the meet the out of stater got there first and half way thru the meet the loud mouth got there.. it was obvious that the tough guy behind the keyboard was probably 50 pounds lighter than the bashed on member.. so the tough guy hung out in his car for about 10 minutes and left the meet without even getting to enjoy the event... for the sake of a

I actually did pick up on the sarcasm on the two-pedal thing, as i mentioned it explicitly : "To the ones who actually had more to say than "why do you only have 2 pedals?" and fill your posts with sarcasm..."
I don't have my smilies backwards. Check my sentence if you're confused. As for "newbie", I don't see how the date I registered on this forum has anything to do with my credibility in an argument or the validity of my points, seeing as (since you want to use that as an indirect argument against me) I registered almost a year before you.

nah... i don't mod for racing, i mod to gain more knowledge and experience in car... i enjoy moddin my max every bit, and once i accomplish i feel great... tat's all. thx for the offer though...
That's what it's all about.
Your statues says Newbie, hence I called you a Newbie. I guess you think it means a lot that you filled out a registration form and returned an email before I did.
I did have more to say than the comment about his car being an auto. I said had a nice ride.
Got no problem with you dude. Just did not like the way you attacked me in and others in your first post. I was not giving this guy a hard time at all in this thread. I actually backed up what he said so I don't need you trying to call me out.

The insurance card doesn't mean anything. I had a different insurance carrier in the past and it listed my SE as a GXE/GLE. You CANNOT decode the trim based on the VIN. It can only be done on the metal placard that is affixed on the firewall. This info is in the Factory service manual if you own one. If you do not, it's already clearly laid out in the FAQ thread: http://forums.maxima.org/showthread....&pagenumber=2. Even though the FAQ on the top of the forum page has over 78,000 views, based on most of the posts in here I'm sure most of you haven't even bothered to look at it.
Here are some tell tale facts that your car is not an SE. Your steering wheel is all plastic. SE models have leather on the steering wheel rim standard (which should be included in the FAQ
). Also your turn signal stalk doesn't have the foglight switch on it (thought the factory offers a kit that can be installed onto GXE/GLEs). Foglights are standard on SE models. Couple with what others mentioned (chrome window trim, chrome door handles, etc) you have a GXE. Also before you installed the gauge flaces the stock faces behind them are black, correct? SE models came standard with white face clusters. We have people here swapping out steering wheel/airbags from different trims and different model years, installing GLE wood interior in other trim models, changing the grills,etc. Go check the metal placard thats on the firewall on the passenger side for the definitive truth (even though we all know its a GXE
)
it's a GXE...
GXE features:
Black guage faces
Cloth seats
Basic stereo (BOSE optional but extremely rare)
Probably no sunroof (optional but very rare)
Chrome outer windwow trim and door handles
5spd or Auto trans
No spoiler
No fog lights
Steel wheels with hubcaps
Chrome grill on 97-99 models
Manual A/C
yes, the insurance is wrong... i do have a GXE model. according to jetblackmax's detail description between each model, i do have a GXE. and lookin at the FAQ... all the components fit into my car, luckily i do have a BOSE system with CD player and a sunroof
well... i'm not really upset about the model, after all it's still a max... i will continue to mod and learn =) thx for ptatohed, I30tMikeD, and BRIGBOY's for the notification on model of my max... thx dlo_azn, BOZOnPJs, JetBlackMax's encouragement, and thx eye dirty, JetBlackMax, and moderator's for the detail info on the model
please, any mod lock up this thread... i think this discussion is over...

I am (and always will be) a member of Maxima.org, even though I currently have a 4dr GSR (Shift_8000RPM
). I will always hold a special place in my heart for the Maxima... As i30tMikeD once so eloquntly put it, "I have a feeling we will be seeing [me] in a VQ soon..." ("me" substituted for "you".)I LOVE Maximas, but I also really enjoy my B18c1, as I am sure you REALLY enjou your B18c5!

Instrumento also means tool, and that could sound a little more like the english sexual connotation of "tool."
You are welcome Sprint!

Whooptie doo, you are all more experienced and knowledgeable on the Maxima. Would you like a cookie? Does that mean you can pick others apart that are just trying to start on the same path you did? Does that mean you can block the passing of information on to others so that they can learn, instead opting to poke and riddle them simply because they don't know as much about the Maxima as you?
He's just starting out, like all of you once did. Do him a favor and help him out constructively instead of being flame-throwing eThugs.
To the ones who actually had more to say than "why do you only have 2 pedals?" and fill your posts with sarcasm, To the rest, . Grow up.

dLo: Who ever said knowing about Maxima trim levels makes you a better person?! Block information?!!! Block what information? By listing all the ways to identify a GXE vs an SE, that is passing on education. Happy himself thanked us for the info. Who's picking or riddling or flaming?
JetBlack: Who is hating?!! And who ever said anything negative about the GXE?!!

Some people hated on him because he wasnt "sure" about his Trim of his max. Its a GXE. Hatin on him because he thought he had an SE making it sound like He Tried to Have a better car then what he has, thats the way it sounded, did it not? And GXE is the standered Model, a lot of ppl think negative of it. Hes lighter, thats his advantage over us SE and GLE guys. Thats what Im saying, either way, squash all that. Hes a Max owner, thats the only important part. He could be a Honda owner, then we could all have the right to hate on him

You are all like one big married couple, and I agree with the Member who said something to the effect of, 'Lets all just help him out, and stop the sarcasim'
THis is a forum to learn about our fine Maxima's and to help each other, not to mock and bash his car. People make mistakes(I.E. Insurance people) so the Insurance company believes it's a SE, and it isn't, so what. He will change it, and no harm done.
