Fixin on the maxi

So I've had my Maxima i wanna say 6 or 7 months now, and i really didn't care for cloth interior least not in this car anyways recently my wife hit a parked car and destroyed a side marker light so a trip down to the salvage yard was in order. Well while i was down there I had came across another Maxima that was fully loaded, and just had to buy the interior along with that i took the entire bose audio system. Then I also had a friend that had the GLE wheels that he wanted to trade me for my SE rims so needless to say i had a good day and well enough of my blabbering picture time!!!
Before when i first bought her

Not at all a fan of leather (makes my back sweat lol) but glad you are happy with your modifications! My 99' is the first car i ever worked on, and everything i know i learned on this forum, but i must say the feeling you get after wrenching away all day and ending ul with an even better car is great to say the least.

My Q for you is did you already get that fuel filter in, and what CEL code are you getting?

lol i like leather but only in some cars the maxima being one of them. The seats are far from perfect but the price i got them at ehh i felt like it was worth it. My other car is a spec v, but yes i already got the filter in and i havent had the codes checked just yet from what i remember from before was a code for n o2 sensor and something else. Cant remember will get them checked on payday plus my lady loves it, shes the one that told me to get it, but like i said i still have a lot of work ahead of me and i still have my cloth seats as well just incase i get tired of the leather

I hate leather and the fact that my current Maxima happens to have leather. You need professional interior + exterior detail.

I couldnt agree with you more on the detailing, but this car and the way it looks is not gonna stay permanent and leather was a better choice because i have a kid on the way and leather is easier to clean up specially since this is the family car
