i like it alot man. question: what are your bumper lights done with? nite shades? paint?

suggestions: i say find some fogs, but not really necessary. definitely get some spacers for the rear tho.

agreed, as far as the bumper lights...they're the black inside, crysal outside from ebay with night shade....um, fog lights is a must!...they broke months ago and have yet to find a set worth the money,...i look everytime i go to a junk yard, and uhm..i plan on spacers eventually..but im worried they will rub a bit, what would you recommend like 5mm? 10mm?.. and ima throw out another possibility..i was thinking about putting a 5 or 6" slim led strip*white* in the holes on the front lip ...think that would be too much? controled inside the cab that is...lol if i were to do that, i would have hid headlights, led bumper lights( i would remove the tint), hid fogs, and led lip lol think that would be too much light?! haha

hmm...yeah, probably a little too much light. with your headlights on, youll have 10 lights shining on the front end!! thats crazy. and chances are, theyll all be slightly different colors no matter how hard you try to match them. but hey, if you try it, make sure u post pics.

I think that looks pretty sweet. Personally I always liked the 97+ bumpers better without fog lights.

A little too blue for my taste but car is coming along nicely.
I like the idea of adding those lights to the openings on the lip, really original.
I wonder how it would look with just those lights minus the fogs.

could you possible give me a link?

i really would hate to wait all that time for shipping to realize that the bulbs i ordered do not fit or the connector is wrong.

just go to ebay, search 97 maxima...or whatever year... hid fog light

- that will pull up a whole bunch, so pick one and go with it, our bulb size for our fogs is h3, so when you buy it, just emailthem saying i need h3 bulbs in 8000k or whatever color you decide to go with, mine are 8k,

- if you want more white, go with 5 k, if you want the yellow ones, you want 3 k. that should be good enough any other questions just ask!
good luck!
