Congratulations man, you proved me wrong. I'm really feeling the look you're going for. Do what Wizard said, maybe tint your bumper lights + fogs to clean the front end up, and drop, and it will look sick. 
You really don't want the same soft spring rate if going lower, you'll bottom out your struts every time you hit a bump. Sprint springs drop it 2" all around but have a much stiffer ride than the H&Rs. Tein S-Techs are softer with a similar drop but, like I said, you'll bottom out constantly, especially with the 20s.
If the drop is most important, I'd say Sprints, but if you honestly can't handle anything worse than H&R's, just stay stock.

And don't forget to get rid of that sunroof deflector 
And do the black bumper lights/fogs and AE'd headlights or black R34's like the others said, and your set!! LOL

Thanks for all the suggestions. I will do the r34s and the bumper lights in black. I'll also get the fogs smoked. They are on ebay as a full set(unless someone is trying to get rid of there's, then I want it). Sunroof wind deflector will come off also. Thanks again.

Not a bad paint scheme, however it would look much better had the line sperating the colors gone ont top of the headlights versus dropping beneathe and then uner the grill. BTW, speakers in the grill is freaking GAY.

First off speaker in the grille are just different, just cause you don't like them does not make them gay. Second I did think about the the line being on top the headlight. But that how a lot of people do their two tone, I've seen three maxima's like that. I don't know about you, but I like to be unique and different, that's why i got into customizing cars in the first place.
HERE ARE PICS OF THE REAR AND MY INTERIOR(i'm about to get it detailed soon)
For all the haters of the grill speaker here is the trunk project i'm working on(shake em haters off)

honestly it was cheap and it's still working after a year. So if it does go bad oh well, they are marine speakers and so far they are holding up great. I did think they were dumb at first till everywhere I went people kept asking me to turn them on. That's what made me keep them.

Morpheus, I love the look. Its unique but not obnoxious. Can I suggest you tint the sunroof as well?
Maxed, I plead the 5th. I was told to not say anything if I have nothing good to say. PS I threw up a lil in my mouth.

Morpheus2010, your max is sik. A little drop with top it off. Don't worry about the haters. I've already bin through the bashing on the org. no biggie. Black on black SE, 5speed, turbos, intakes, Mille Miglia rims, with stillen kits make them happy. 20's dropped with a crazy paint job, tv's, speaker in the grill..lay low and cruz make maxima guys like us happy. simple as that. Good job on the max, keep it up.

dude i think those 20s look sick morph
i would redo the paint just all black though personally
that dark tint with those rims and all black would be tight, get the horizontal chrome grill thats closer together sorta simular to the f150 one if you've seen one on them before

ditch the 2tone or use a straight line. pillars in back along with mirrors. drop it. fix the sideskirts. get a tighter grill.... did i mention to ditch the 2 tone. all black.
ps to the leprechon abomination, what the **** WERE YOU THINKING?!
seriously dude.. what is that?! its like the lucky charms dude bought a 4x4 car... thing..
put some tasteful wheels on there and get rid of some of that wheel gap for the love of god. also the chrome nissan plate in front doesnt look as good as a naked front.

Sorry to change subjects guys but, i was driving to orlando yesterday, and something really weird happened. THe car stopped, all the lights in the dash came on, I lost power steering. This is the second time this happened. Right before it shuts off the car looses acceleration and then shuts off. It ****ing hard to start it back up too.
Thanks for all the advise, I will keep the two tone. Flakes will be gone, I did not know the sideskirts were on backwards, but if my painter can get them off and fix it i will do it. I really did not know how to put them on or which way it should go, there are no custom maximas around here, some guy who had a honda with a body kit helped me put them on, then my painter glassed them on to the car. I will also take off the deflector. I really like my grill but if you guys can find me a grill(that fits on our maximas) thats closer together then I will get that then.

My first intuition says the ignition switch is bad. Same thing happened to my gf's Civic. Honda determined it was the ignition switch and replaced it. Been fine for 1.5 years now.

Relax.....he's entitled to his opinion, as you are yours. You post up pics of your car on the internet, you're gonna get positive and negative feedback whether you like it or not.
