Thanks man... the "white part" is actually the primer coming through now bc i wrecked the car.......again... i know... again.. about 2 months ago both rear calipers didnt work. was very cold out. i ride on F1's in the front which have no cold traction.... I was pulling into a wendy's and the front wheels just gave out and i slid into a huge boulder-rock and knocked it out of my way to stop. Thankfully, I laughed and put the car in reverse and backed off of it....
(note: ive been through 4-to-5 different front bumpers, all small accidents : ( I have a collection of them now, Ill get picks to show ya soon lol......... Its only money and great painting experience for me to fix.

I will be repainting the front bumper and doing some different paint scheme in the front this summer... ~secret in progress~ i really like the way orange contrast's with the blue-color so it will have some orange-pearl incorp into the scheme of things....

Thanks for the comments everyone...

A little dark but you can see where the boulder went throught the entire bumper cover... Still-Lip is perfect still, has lasted through all 4 bumpers... the grill doesnt have that mark on it like in this pic below..

Yeah ur telling me lol...
I had a book typed up of all 5 accidents since the paint job but id like to keep some dignity on this Pic_page lol...

Thanks descent. I get asked "what kinda car is that" everyday. most ppl think WRX but they always say na.... "thats a Nice & Big car, what is it?"

Last summer.... Honestly I had about 5 ppl a week stop me at lights and ask questions & compliment the color and wheels matching good...

I am not going to bother reading other posts, but...
a) get a body colored grille
b) remove any gold emblems and replace with OE chrome
c) drop the god damn thing
d) get rid of those kosei wheels

Other than that, nice paint job.

good idea man

kingrukus: You have the exact same wheels on someone's car in your homepage...
and there almost identical to yours on your car....

Those wheels are no wear near the same as my own. Yes, some random guy that was at a maxima meet a few years back had the same wheels as you, so what?

And here are some pics of blue maximas with body painted grilles that I have uploaded from my little collection of maxima pics from back in the day...

What does yours look like? intrested~... do you got pics of it from where you bought it?....one thing i had to do was remove mine the first time b/c it was too far back on the hood (about middle). It looks Much better closer towards the front of the hood... or mine does i think.
