The weather has finally cooperated in KC and all the snow has melted. I shot some pics of my black SE with the Stillen body kit and 15" sawblades (winter set up). You'll also notice the front smoked turn signals and some more pics of my rear smoked signals. I was finally able to capture the H&R drop with my camera. Who said H&Rs don't sit low enough?

for some reason, those sawblades look sexy now...

 

Sleeper stlye..........

 

looks good man! howcome you didn't go darker with the front bumper lights? it looks good that way, just wondering why you didn't go darker. i made some for my buddy and made them practically as dark as his paint and the light still shines through in the daytime.

take pics from the other side...sawblades look awesome from one side, and the other seems a little funny because they're pointing in the other direction.

 

what size tires do you have on the sawblades? looks good

 

Yeah, wtf. How do your sawblades look so sexy. Hot damn.

Looks bad a$$

 

i think the kit creates the illusion of the sawblades lookin so good :

 

is the shot in your sig with the H&Rs? i like the way your car sits. purty.

those wheels are the ASA's from Tirerack right?

what exhaust or tip is that anywho?

 

that exhaust is the 5th gen variable muffler

 

nice and cleeeeeeeeean

 

how much it set ya back? hard to install and can you get it painted from stillen?

 

My two comments were going to be exactly what Jepht said. One, I think you should have smoked clear sidemarkers, not orange ones. And two, it is a bummer that the sawblades are not directional. I am stoked my SHO 'slicers' are directional. Looks very nice Dave. I love smoked lights on black Maximas.

 

Sawblades always look sexy guys better than the crappy gle rims on my 96! BTW I gotta get some sawblades to replace em. Sweet body kit, makes the car look a lot lower

 

it looks lower cuz of the shadowing if any of you noticed. but yeah it is lower and it looks awesome. sawblades represent.

 

I've smoked the clears in the past and they don't look good in direct sunlight because the tint gives of the smoked clears a slightly greenish hue. It was too ricey for me. The smoked ambers look 10X better IMO because as most Org people know, I've always been trying to achieve a Bavarian style with my Maxima and the smoked ambers put it one step closer. Keep in mind the picks were taken in direct sunlight and the smoked ambers are the brightest during that part of the day. I like the look because it takes away from with clear plastic that was all over the front of my car.

I'm confused about the sawblades no being directional comments. They look directional to me The spokes are slanted in a directional so doesn't that make them directional?


Dave

 

Yeah, my sig shot is with the H&Rs. The picture angle, shadowing, and lighting weren't good when I took pics with my 17s.

Yes, those are ASA LS5 17s from the Tirerack. They weigh 17lbs.

The exhaust is a 5th gen Maxima muffler.


Dave

 

Of course they look directional to you, because you are only showing us the driver side of the car. Wise guy. :P

Directional = can only go on one side of the car. Ex. 'Directional tires'
Non-directional = they are all the same, you can put them on either side.

Your sawblades 'swirl' clockwise. That looks great on the left side since when the car moves forward, the c.w. sawblades spin c.c.w., (the 'aerodynamic way). On the passenger side you still have c.w. sawblades but now they are spinning c.w. Some cars which have 'swirl' rims make two seperate molds to fix this so they look the same from either side of the car. Ex. The first gen. LS400.

Anyway, why did you just make me explain all that when you knew that already? :P

 

I agree that it is a sleeper style, but funny you should say that because it must not be that "sleeper" because I got into a little tango with a 99+ 5 speed Stang GT 5 minutes before these pics were taken. He got me by a 1/2 car jump a stayed there


They're the OEM size which is 215/60R15 ballons.


Dave

 

looks nice dave

 

if those saw blades were bigger they would look really nice. i think the kit really does make those saw blade look nice

 

97+ wanna be...


Car looks good! I liked the smoked orange corners.

 

I am kind of going for a similar look but wish my Black max's paint was as clean as that( Have a lot of scratches and 3-4 dents) . The more I have the sawblades though the more I like them compared to going to a bigger rim. Just seems to work really well on a Black max.

 

Look very nice and classic.

 

Thanks for all the compliments


Dave

 

Looks good!

 

More pics of the tails, Im starting to like that idea.

 

i dont know why but your car kind of reminds me of the newer 240's.

them saw blades look good on the maxima once its dropped. Dam, or maybe its cause your car is black...

 

and the full stillen kit with 97-99 front end

 

I have never liked clear corners on Green Maxes...I've been thinking aobut smoking mine, if only to stop getting the "nice corners" post every time I post a pic.

Car looks good though...those sawblades are def looking good...usually I don't like them, but I think it works in this case.

 

Actually it's just a 97+ grille and the clear foglight access caps painted black. Everything else is 95-96. You're right though, I am trying to go for the 97+ look.


Dave

 

what spray or tint did u use?

 

looks good. I am not usually a fan of those saw blades, but that looks nice.
