Im looking to do a bunch of body work over this winter to get ready for the summer time fun, but im still debating on which color i wanna paint her, im having a highly respected relative of mine that has been doing automotive paint for years, he will be doing jams and everything, this will NOT be a macco paint job. But back to what i was saying, what color have you guys saw or not saw on a maxima that you thought would look good? Ive got the gold max right now, and im thinking of painting it a cream white, but ive saw some pretty good looking maximas on here, so just looking for some of your alls input.

Thanks!

It's your car, do what YOU want.

 

Im doing what I want no matter what, but im trying to get an outside perspective.

 

Purple.

 

If it were me ... I'd have it done in the OE color code.

 

Says the guy with the rare Crimson blaze lol

 

I always loved the sage mist green of my previous maxima, it was a 97 to 99 color. That color really works well with platinum colored rims.

2nd choice would be the blue maxims like max ride 41 or amerikaner83

My I30 right now is this dark green I feel "meh" about. I wish it was black. It kinda becomes black at night, so

 

I always thought the 5th Gens looked good white. Yours is a 4th Gen though,right? White would still look good on the 4th. BTW, anyone know the paint code of the dark blue color that was specific to the anniversary edition? Wish my A/E was that color. I think that dark blue would look good on a 4th Gen.

 

Yeah i lowered it, and have white wheels on it. I dont wanna get OE colors, i wanna do something different. Fakie has that green mist color. lol

 

Let's Make a Deal..........

I'll tell you my input, if you make videos and share them with us on the Body Work! LOL Seriously, I'd love to see how it's done!

The 4th Gens that turn my head most usually have mods that make the car look less cluttered and more sleek. So many 4th Gens were sold in the NY area, so I see so many stock. But the ones that are enhanced to look FAST, always look like a different animal with not too much being done. Any color looks even better with some body enhancements (I'm thinking Sofia Vergara enhancements).

But my favorite Sofia Vergara 4th Gen is usually in Sterling Mist!

 

My A/E is sterling mist. I don't think I've ever seen a 4th Gen in that color. Would probably look nice.

 

Sterling mist..ftw.. Super black maxima tho FTMFW!!

 

I'm redoing mine the same color.
I do love the sage.

 

See im going for that sleek look. thats what i like, thats why i lowered it. All my buddies want me to get the duck bill and spoiler, but i dont want it. i like the clean sleek look.

 

red
Look at that

Neon Orange????

 

Yeah, but his car is gold. He NEEDS a color change badly. LOL

 

Cream White is a low maintenance color.

Will you have a clear and metallic layer over cream?

 

Pearl white, Crimson red, Orange with pearls in them look amazing. or midnight blue

 

I haven't really thought about it, but probably a metallic.

 

That's for sure! I have gotten a lot of compliments on the gold with the white wheels though.

 

Has anyone ever saw a cream white 4th gen?

 

dude your car is gold? thats an expensive paint man why would u want to downgrade it??



//sarcasm lol

 

Black or white are the best for 4th gen maximas.
But i have seen some nice skyline blue or crimson red as well.
There are a couple purples too.

 

Midnight blue and candy apple red are two of my favorites. If your going through all the work of painting it, make it stand out with a non-OE color. I also like the metallic grey that the 5th gens come in. Seems to be the most common 5th gen color

Keep in mind future repairs if need be. My 4th gen is black, I painted 2 doors, both fenders and both bumpers with du pont two stage black urethane, can't tell the difference at all from the factory original. Black is black, easy to fix and repair. If it were me, I would go with a unique color like true green.

 

It looks pretty cool if you black out all the chrome bits, like the m-a-x-i-m-a on the trunk and Nissan burger on the grill, to name a few parts.

There's a guy on here who did that....cant remember the name though.

 

I like pearl white, but if i was ever to change colors i think it would be gunmetal

 

I love my pearl white. Too bad its full of rock chips, I've heard it's the most expensive to replicate.

 

This is what my car looks like right now. file:///Users/bree2241/Desktop/IMG_2074.JPG

 

Use photobucket.

 

like this?

 

This two-tone white over gold combination was popular in the 90s. There is an I30 near me that has this combination.

 

I use an app to blur my plate though.
Your call of course.

 

i dont have many rock chips. but i do have one massive gash in the rear bumper.

you can see it from a mile away, its her beauty scar

 

My car is this color a 99 se my question is I am doing my rear bumper which is sunlit sand and I am going to need a quart to do this ? Where do you guys get the paint for it cheap wise? My car is not perfect but love this color thanks

 

Green with purple dots all over it.

Clown car colors.

Please choose whatever you want. It's your car. Do what ever ever you want.
