*new Pics* Ae Lights

Just thought I would share some pics that I took with my AE headlights, and with my car all washed. Soon to come is the polished grill. Just ordered it today. Let me know what you think...

I think the Eibachs are a perfect drop and a stiff but normal ride. It handles awesome. Thanks for the compliments.

MaxSeima they ran me 200 with bulbs and it makes such a big difference. If you look at the first pages my car does not even look aggressive.

Cwally, Hey main man. The lights do look better, but preferably i wouldve gone with the 2k2 ones if you could get them cheaper than $1000.

I wanted to ask if you got more pictures of your trunk setup and info on it. I did sort of the same thing, but ran into a problem with the magnet clearing the spare tire well. I want to do the eclipse alum's but dont think they will clear. Did you raise the trunk floor a bit? Cause I left my trunk floor 100% oem. Once I put the carpet on, you cant tell from anything until you pull it up and notice two 10s. If you got more pics, email me to me at dsuthar@comcast.net

Yeah for non-HIDs, those AE headlights are nice. The headlights on my Sentra SE-R are smoked/tinted much like those of the AE. One of these days, I gotta save up and get those for the Maxima.

Thanks for the compliments. I would have gone with the HID but am trying to convince myself to buy another car. So I am trying to save up some money. The floor is raised 3 quarters of an inch. I can take some close up pictures of the setup and email them to you. The 12"s cleared, but barely.

If this question is for me, I could have never installed this myself. I had a friend do this here in San Diego.

I thought about it, but I wanted to be different and have the SE lights with no spoiler and the stillen kit. As for the drop, no complaints. As to the car being even, dont some springs have more of a drop in the rear than in the front? I am not quite sure on this one.

I will post pics as soon as I get my grill on...

I bought these lights from someone here on the org. They came with bulbs and everything. And yeah, they are much cheaper than the HID and they look wayyyy more agressive than the normal ones. If I remember correctly, the install was actually quite easy. Basically you remove the screws from the top of the lights. Unplug the lights and all Then you pull on the light toward the front of the car, and wedge them out. And on the new ones, its just the opposite.

OK...that is what I thought. 200 seemed a little cheap for those lights. By any chance, did you price them out new?

Actually, I did. But these were still a better deal because they came with lights. (not stock, but I cant remember which ones). And with turn signal lights also.

Do it... It makes all the difference.


I even feel like the car goes faster. Just kidding, but it makes it look much more aggressive.

I have thought about adding the AE headlamps. But, I added the 2k2 taillamps a year ago and I am not so sure the 2k2 tails would look so good with the AE lamps. 2k2's are a gray color while the AE lamps are a broze color..I think.

then all you have to do is trade your 2k2 tails with a 2k-2k1 SE tails!

2K-2K1 SE tails look like black swollen eye ***** on my Icelandic Pearl. They look good on darker colors though. Also, in my opinion, 2k2 tails look best on Icelandic Pearl and Sterling Mist.
