Sorry man, no trading yet.. Too new :-).

As for the paint, well this was all done at a bodyshop. This was the same color as the original factory paint - Arctic white pearl - Paint Code: QN0, I believe.

As for buying paint, try these two distributors:

congrats, you've passed the anti-rice test. Great work!

packetattack 09-07-2004 03:00 PM

Thanks. Anti-rice is good!

As to the poster that remarked about the TYPE-X spoiler. Its a nice one, but I think it sits a little too high for me. I like the low factory SE spoiler. Its all about personal taste. Someone didn't like the TRENZ grilles, but I admire that grille. Once its classy, though.

your ride is so clean and simply perfect.....just how much was this total bill and what the hell do you do for a living?! Nonetheless, perfect Maxima!!!!now you jsut need that money on the engine and you have yourself a competition winner!

SupermaxGxe 09-07-2004 10:29 PM

What happend to the covers for the foglight bolts? Do they not fit anymore because of the front lip?

-Chris

VIP Maxima 09-07-2004 11:02 PM

REALLY NICE.

you need to go lower, put on stock grill and tint that biatch.

btw where did u get the "maxima" door kicks, the one that go by the seats on the body of the car?


btw whats the secret? ur front leather seats look so new, unlike mine which have cracks.... and look hard

packetattack 09-08-2004 06:41 AM

Thanks man. Well the Stillen kit was bought a few years ago when it was on sale for $779. It was sitting in storage for a few years. I refused to put it on until I got a drop and some rims. The rims and tires were exactly $2000. The audio and headunit including install was a few thousand. And then the body work, which I got a good price on. Keep in mind, everything wasn't done all at once, so it was a little easier on the wallet. I'm a network security engineer that works for a large financial firm. Most of the "play" money for this came from stock market gains. I wouldn't touch savings for stuff like this.

Thanks, but I like the Trenz Grille. The car is already tinted. Its a "legal" tint here in NYC, which still lets the cops see in. Any darker and I'm looking for a ticket.

Those are the CustomMaxima carbon fiber door sills. If you scroll back a little bit, you'll see that I posted a link for Chris as well, who had the same question.

As for the front leather seats, well I condition them everytime I detail the car. The outside edges are vinyl, but the inside section is leather.

Use a small whisk broom to really sweep out the seams. A lot of dirt and dust gets trapped in those seams. Once that's done, get some leather cleaner and a white terry cloth and clean the seat from top to bottom. Then condition it, until the leather won't take anymore conditioner. You can tell this when there is a slight "film" being left on the seat. That should help the leather stay supple for a long time.

If your seats are already hard, there are leather softening/rejuvenating products that you can buy. Do a search on google.com and you'll see some pop up.

Actually, I lost both of them a long time ago, after replacing the regular foglight bulbs with HIDs. I think Nissan wanted too much for them so I never bought them. I'll check again with them to see.

packetattack 09-08-2004 07:08 AM

Exactly. Becuase of the dish, it looks a little smaller. Some people think they are 18s, but they're not :). Up close though, they look like 19s.

MidwestMaX1 09-08-2004 07:17 AM

I love those turn signals on your side mirrors, man. Those are a great addition to your car. Your Maxima is gorgeous.

SkoorbMax 09-08-2004 07:37 AM

I like the wheels :D

Brudaddy 09-08-2004 11:09 AM

oh so ur suppose to put conditioner untill it cant take anymore. ive been doing cleaning and conditionering once every 6 months but it doesnt seem like its helping. next time im going to put more and more and more on the seats. hehehehe

Kta920 09-08-2004 12:28 PM

very nice lookin Max! Only thing it needs is a stillen exhaust to accent the back end a little.

Lots of credit on how clean it is.Too bad its not a 5spd :(

Taken2DaMax 09-08-2004 12:34 PM

Looks very nice...don't really like the tenz grille but to each his own. The rest of the car looks really really clean. It's a head turner!!!

tpduke112 09-08-2004 02:12 PM
