hey guys i need some opinions. my max is burgundy with the tan cloth interior and i need some ideas of what to do to the interior so it doesn't look so boring. i don't think i can really do neons again because not many colors go with tan but maybe a painted dash? or trim (window switch covers, door handle covers, sunroof switch covers) please gimme some ideas guys! i posted something like this once but got no answers....

so i taker it i should go the luxury route instead of a more "custom look" ? the only problem with that is i have cloth seats? do u think wood trim would look funny with cloth seats?

ok, here's what you do:

The red neons would look fine with the outside of the car, I would say, go with the woodtrim dash kit and carbon fiber shiftknob and ebrake.

Also, if you're doing the red neons, change your interior lights to red aswell (the maplights, domelight and little doorlights) the sizes are in the users manual for the maxima.

goodluck

Is that your engine in the pic on your sig? I am curious how you painted the Nissan part on there blue like that. I like the blue with white idea. I would go red with black Nissan but curious how you did it or what type of paint was used?

yep thats mine, its $4.32 500 degree heat paint or engine enamel from pepboys, i got a can of silver and of blue, handpainted the lettering in silver and did various caps in the engine, also removed and painted the metal valve cover behind it in silver
on another note, the red would look good, i like blue so i have a blue dome, door, and strobe light, but the interior looks really cool in blue on any color car
