Looking into the future

I became blessed (bought a maxima) yesterday.

I have used photoshop to show you what the future holds for my maxima.




The before is its current state.

The after is my goal.


Edit: yes, im a photoshop n00b, but you get the idea

Congrats on the purchase! What are you planning on doing to the taillights? From what I've read it's a real pain in the **** to clear them out and if you don't leave the red there you gotta worry about the

Nope. Blessed is a MB S600, you were merely smiled upon with a Max.

Anniversary Edition...they came with the 2001. There are alot of cool AE things you can add on. Like aluminum pedals, shifter and door sills.

Sweet, those are the tails that came with mine. If only I could get that orange out of there!

Here's a link to most of the AE stuff you can add on, they don't seem to have the headlights though.

But I agree with NT2SHBBY...save up and get the HIDs.

you can go that route too and get an HID conversion kit but I'm talkin about OEM HID housings/bulbs/ballasts/wiring from an 02-03 maxima...its a direct fit for your 00-01

Or instead of buying AE headlights for about $220, you can take the route I took and make your own for about $10. Here's the How-To that Phatman5050 made - http://zachaltman.hypermart.net/Head...t%20How-to.htm
A lot of people here on the org have done this. I love mine.
