Yellow Fogs
I think the wavelength of the yellow lights is actually better suited for driving in fog, it's not reflected as much as white light. People started changing their yellow fogs for white so they could drive with their fogs on....and blind oncoming drivers.
At hot import nights in Ft Lauderdale I saw a Civic with a set of aftermarket rears that looked like the ones on the I30 or a Mazda Millenia, with the clear and the red but the really reflective type, I think those would look sweet on a Max

Shadow I know what you're saying... and I agree to a certain extent. But personally, I'll make fun of a civic I see that's EXCESSIVE. I mean, not just a civic, I'd make fun of a max too, it's just that it seems that civics are the car of choice for these people. I've seen quite a few really tight looking civics and yes, some have had altezza lights, but the overall package was really nice and clean and I think that looks great.
Me, I'm interested in seeing how they look. Like someone said, be careful if they're not made by APC folks...

I like the photoshopped pic done by.....
Maxima zero....
It looks real good to me,as a matter of fact myself and some more guys on this board would buy them in New York minute if APC or anyone made them in a 4 piece
set for 95-99.....it is so simple we all drive our own cars and buy and put what we want in/on them if our money allows. So if you don't like it don't buy it and we need
to quite player hating on each other's cars,we are already outnumbered in the import scene buy Honduh's and Acuruh's(pun)even little crappy Neons,we need to
stick together as Maxima owners then companies will recognize the Maxima as an underated performance car with style.....freedom of choice exercise it..........chill
out,our cars are personal expressions about us in a way, some more extravagant than others either because they have more money or sponsors or a very ceative
mind....to EACH HIS OWN........Hopefully we can get them made for us......

Do you see how much excitement there is for these lights? I want them bad too, and with as many people that are interested in them, WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD LET A BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY LIKE THIS GO BY. If you manufacture a product like this, and with as many people wondering where this stuff is, it's already way too late.
Come on, clear Altezza style wheels WILL SELL.

Just wait until it's time to buy them, watch how the excitement just kind of goes away. It always happens, people all want something, but when it's time to pay, magically the excuses start popping up. Just ask Cheston, or anyone else who has spent time trying to develop something for a Maxima. It's always, "Well I would buy them if..."

Couple days ago, I was at my local Rice Shop here in Kansas City and they had a set of Altezza lights for the 4th gen Maxima (looked to be for a 95-96). They are a four piece set with more oval shaped brake lights with a black background. They were about $220 for the set.
I hate these things, but that's just me. They are pure Rice Boy. They are on so many cars now that even the IS300 looks ricey to me. What a shame. Rice Boys have a way of really over-doing stuff until they completely kill it (wheels, exhaust tips, mufflers, taillights, colored lights, spoilers, body kits).

Euro's ?!?!
Euro's are getting so played out... In my opinion I see them as ugly on most cars.. you have to have a specific look to be able to rock them on your ride.. And sorry to say I love my Maxima but putting euros on it is out of the question.. Just to ricey for me,Honda went over and beyond with them and just killed them.

Could you give me the name and phone number of the local shop that has the altezza's for the max in your area? I've never seen them, and have been asking around and nobody has them. I'd appreciate any info, thank in advance.-Custom-
