Heres my 98 (same as 99). The suspension consists of Ground Control coil overs (I know they aren't "true" coil overs) with Koni Yellow shocks, Stillen Rear Sway bar and front strut tower brace. The front is dropped as low as the Ground Controls will allow and the rear is just a little higher to level the car. Sorry I don't have any pics of it dropped with stock rims.

Why does it have to be 99? How bout 98 dropped on Sprints w/ stock rims?




^Thats my old Max

99 SE-L

i really like those rims but i think 19's are too big becuase the drop does reduce the wheel gap but ground clearance doesent change alot ill probably be dropping my maxima in april and will be gettign 18x8 Mille Miglia Evo 5's
also whats up with the grille not digging it too much but hey its whats u like

I made it myself with fiberglass for the eyelids and alluminum roundbar painted pearl black for the grill. Your the first person who has said they didn't like it. What don't you like about it?

heres a close up:

i guess i jus took a quick glance and said i didint liek it but now it actually looks nice hwo did u make it again

I made a clay mold next to the headlight to create the shape of the grill then layed fiberglass on top of it to make the eyelids. Then it was alot of glass-bondoing and sanding to get they shape I wanted. The grill is made out of bent aluminum round bar that you can buy at the hardware store. The round bar is JB-welded into holes drilled in a aluminum flatbar frame that holds it all togeather.

This link has some pics of the first steps of fiberglassing the eyelids:

The 19's are wrapped in 35 series tires. This makes them barely larger than the diamiter of the stock rims and tires (mabey a half an inch). So, although it may not look like it in the pictures the ground clearance was changed by at least a few inches. I also had to have the exhaust resonator replaced by a strait pipe because it scraped on everything.

Thanks,

Some kind of art, not mine. I was just driving and saw it. I thought it would make a pretty good picture.

Here is another weird a$$ thing that was on the fence:
