Very creative. I actually like that. Might look good with some more offload-ish wheels and tires too. Maybe some mudflats too.

you missed something, you need to put a32 bomber on the front fender or hood somewhere. creative, you can take that to an air show now, it'll fit in with the old bomber planes from back in the day.

thanks guys , i know its not most peoples style. if this car was in good shape i never would have done it but i had to cover more rust from the salt this winter and this was a good way to hide it.



i used 220 then 320 to sand it, i painted it with rustoleum self etching primer 13 cans for the whole car.(its also my color coat) then the air bushing then 8 cans of rustoleum flat clear.

ya what great about this now is if i want to add anything i just air brush /stencil it on and hit it with some clear.

Wow...very talented. I love how u painted how many vehicles and motorists you took out lol....prius!!!

JoshG

i really like the look, Looks mean and military looking. Gotta give ya huge respect for that look.

mudflaps would make the car look cooler as well!

also add the grille back =P or maybe add a cool symbol in the middle? instead of putting the nissan symbol.

Lower with smaller wheels that have that meaty tire look and you have a win once the hood is done.

Not bad at all. It does need lowz....bad.

That looks great and is damn creative!

Paining it all at once takes more taping but saves quite some time in the long run. When I painted my entire A32 I removed every piece besides the roof, quarters, and rocker panels. I did the sections separately over a 2 week period. If I have time this spring I might paint the trunk, hood, and wheels gun metal while leaving the rest black. It'll stand out but nothing your MAX.

That looks really sick man.

Awesome airbrush work, love the rust and rivet for each separate panel.

I was thinking the same thing on the placement of a WWII airplane nose art like these....

i have thought about it, its still missing something and i haven't figured it out yet. my dad wants to make some fake 50 cals to mount to the hood death race style for shows.

i just realized that i reached my data limit on photobucket, here are some to replace them.

JoshG

dangg looking better! i see u have put mudflaps on, looks better with them.

Should put something in the grille, make ur custom symbol, something is missing there. but dont put the straight bar across it, just the symbol in the middle. I think it would look good with the right symbol u choose to make.

That maxima is one hell of a Tank! I really like it.. I would pay you to custom paint my car, it really looks like u know what ur doing. and that skill is very valuable and takes patience to know how to do. Wish I knew how to do it myself, anything is possible. Just need someone to teach me it well haha
