Wow, that's really awesome bro. Very unique.

I was just thinking someone should do this with the maxima badges on the back somehow lol. I thought that's what this was going to be when I saw the thread.

This is definitely a cool mod.

instead of acrylic glass it looks like one-way mirror glass. I like the mirror/silver look during the day, then the light shines through when you turn the neon on at night.

Hey good job A++++

Nice work man.

If it were me, I think I'd've done it in the same font as the back of the car and a little skinner.

Definitely unique.

Yeah man it might be a tough job..maybe not...I'd love to see it though. I wish I had the talent.


Question to OP: Does it light up just when you open the door, always on, or can you switch it?

I wired it to the door light, so everytime any door opens it illuminates. You know i originally got the idea from my brothers mercedes s55. His door sills light up so that kind of made me come up with this.

that is really really cool!! +1 on the idea! I really like that font too. It looks similar to "Nissan" font but if you want to make it look really stock, you can download the nissan font from here: http://www.geocities.com/geo_n_m_l/nissan.html

Idk, maybe that'd be cool if you made one out of the Nissan font to give it a more factory look?
Great Job anyway.
