I'm dropping her, tinting the windows and adding a rear spoiler in the next few weeks. Other then that what more should I or shouldn't I do?

What you guys think about my car....I was never into 4th generation Maxima's into I came to this site and fell in love with few of them on here. So in about 4 months and a small budget this is what I came up with.

Give me the keys.

All jokes aside what kind of performance mods do you have?

shook187

iTrader: (5)

Y pipe, megaflow cat and SP2...I'm not focus on performance just yet. Maybe for next summer I'll drop a 3.5 in her.

i think its look better w/o a spoiler color match the window trim and handles

ChrisMan287

iTrader: (34)

Hm so as for styling mods I wouldn't do anything else besides what your planning to do. Maybe a retrofit?

Snypa

iTrader: (35)

Based on how the car looks now(extra good)...after next weeks stuff, you should be good.

tbones

Why on gods green earth would you even drop a penny on a 14 year old pos!!
JK once its dropped it's going to look that much sweeter. BTW I personally wouldn't add the rear spoiler looks good as is.

Bird1411

i like it man, looks clean, can u post of a side shot 4 me
i wanna c wat the max looks like with a rook spoiler and no rear spoiler, thinkin of tryin that

nitromax

i've read where someone called an add on spoiler "a picnic table". so make a wise choice since you're askin' for opinions 'bout looks. with your set up, the simpler the better. the lip spoiler maybe or as said b4...none. just my 2 cents. lookin' great! what is that color?
looks darker than cg2.

ChrisMan287

iTrader: (34)

It is. This is CG2:


-That color is a lot darker and has a "goldish" look to it while CG2 is tan. I'm digging it.

shook187

iTrader: (5)

Its called matt gold pearl metallic from a 2008-2009 Volvo (volvo paint code 489). I saw a S40 driving along side of me on the highway. From that moment on I knew that was the color I wanted.

I wasn't a fan of CG2 (which my car was)

other than what u said, retrofit projectors into the r34's and get a trunk spoiler

What did you use to cover the grill? I like how you can just make out the burger behind whatever that is.

JSMax

iTrader: (13)

I would tint it. Dark.

Snypa

iTrader: (35)

its a lil mesh kit i think. They sell on ebay IIRC.

Coolsaber57

iTrader: (22)

Make/get some David.L style red/clears.

Looks good though. You've done more in 4 months than I have in a year and a half

brandnew

iTrader: (5)

you need a retro fit a 97-99 front/rear bumper conversion/ and f*ck that you need the spoiler... led retro fits are always a nice look... but all in all very nice car wish i had new paint...

klemenz

I think it would look good with a spoiler myself

Other than that I would say tint your windows

Maximeltman

iTrader: (11)

ya thats lookin sick man! 4get the spoiler, tint windows, color match it, and drop it a bit.

shook187

iTrader: (5)

Its a grill kit from grill tech. Very cheap mod that looks good on 95-96 bumpers.

As far as the spoiler, I'm getting put on real soon....maybe today if the body shop don't rap me, its already painted but it sat in my trunk and got chiped in a few spots so touch up paint is in need.

I'll PM one.

Leo_Koneval

iTrader: (4)

Wow very nice car, its perfect in my opinion. Perhaps make the pillars body colored?

The Wizard

iTrader: (43)

What you should do IMO (in addition to what you have planned):
Get SE black window trim
Paint your door handles body color
Redo front lip. Attach front lip w/o screws. (costly now)

What you shouldn't do:
Add a spoiler

shook187

iTrader: (5)

We tried like hell but it just won't line up. Just ask guys on here with a stillen 95-96 lip

I think all the mod's you've done are very tastefull and not ricey. If you wanna see a roof spoiler with a factory trunk spoiler look at my profile pic, and just imagine your car with bot. I like the look with both. A drop would be another good choice, that's my next mod.

Nycist

that thing is almost ready for ROTM.

color match the pilars. lower it a lil. retrofit projectors.
you have one of the few 4th gens that i think absolutely dont need a spoiler.

AustinTylerDean

iTrader: (1)

Fix your antenna mast....

Ya know what I always wanted to do? Powder coat my rims and calipers to match my paint... Your color is a wee bit dark to do that..

Mine is factory gold.

IMHO, which is worth precisely crap, I think the rims are too bright for the paint.

Stormzusmc

Drop and shave antenna

shook187

iTrader: (5)

I was thinking shave it and put on a color match roof antenna like this, with of course no trunk spoiler. (I don't want to much happening in the rear).

Crusher103

iTrader: (10)

dont add a spoiler i think that will ruin the look since u have one on the rear window, i think it would look better if u just added a M3 style lip to the back

^^^There you go, and plus just a slam thats all you really need

The Wizard

iTrader: (43)

I know it's a pain in the butt, but it can be done. I assisted Ptatohed on his 96, so I do know.

IMO, it will distract from the nice low stance you will acheive once you get rid of your 4x4 look. I talked Ptatohed out of doing it...

Stormzusmc

iTrader: (17)

again drop...but that would make the car look more euro....if thats what you like go for it..not my style though...

Jayson89NYC

iTrader: (4)

No spoiler please! The car looks much cleaner without. I am a big fan of no spoilers on any car.
Watch it on the drop, wouldnt go with anything too low its hard on driving on the street where the roads suck maybe just an H&R drop at most the car looks great.
The sleeper is where its at.

ZaxWhite97Max

New rims.

And add the spoiler, take off the window thing. I use to be spoilerless and regreted getting one, but once I did it makes the car look so much sportier. All you non spoiler guys are missing out.

Gman8990

iTrader: (6)

I think a spolier would look real nice and complete it... I was really happy with the way my max looked after i put on a spoiler

96maxgxe

tint the windows 25%, drop her 2', dont add a spoiler, add an m3 crbon fiber lip, black out the tail lights, carbon fiber hood and trunk. parts r sooo damn expensive, lucky for me, my friends dad makes carbon fiber parts for aliving so i get it dirt cheap otherwise your maxima looks ver clean and sharp...good job.. i was thinking of getting a full r34 body kit andpaint my car burnt orange but i really like your front spoiler (were did you get it?), so i might scratch my idea and leave a few bucks in my pocket
