what do you guys think? i've done the two biggies, wheels and stereo... any small cosmetic mods you guys think i could use? thanks for your opinion!

BiggD23

In my humble opinion, ANY color 5th gen improves greatly with a set of clear corners.

Luquire

I agree. The oem ones are just not very smooth looking. the clear corners help give it that extra bit of sleakness

You dont need clear corners, but it is definitely a nice exterior mod.

trey

Do you need clear corners?

Is the pope catholic?

Is a frogs *** water tight?

Does a bear crap in the woods?

Any ever see what clears look like one a beige max??

guitarn247

maximamaybe they do look really nice.. i dunno though im still undecided.. i dont have the chrome tails.. i have the smoked..so i dunno how well it would look..when u put clear corners in, does the bulb still stay amber, and or red?

I just put clear corners on my black 2k today and they look sweet. The car looks a lot cleaner and classier. Just my opinion.

dobiegillis

Clears are a huge improvement. At a minimum put in the front ones and get rid of the awful orange lens. My only complaint is that the amber lights I put in the rear ones aren't very bright. My rears aren't silver on the inside so they don't reflect the light out as well as the front ones.

eclane

I just did the front clears. I actually prefer the red on the rears. Take a look at the homepage

I have a Pearl white max and I kinda like the colored lenses. Do you think clear lenses will look better?

So are you guys running colored bulbs in the front(orange) and back(red) or just normal colored bulbs. Also I didnt kow that the Anniversary Edition came in Glacier Pearl I thought it was Icelandic Pearl?

eclane

amber on the front

NT2SHBBY

**** yeah you need em...I wish I could clear the HID's and candy the tails but I'm chicken ****.....

eclane

amber on the front

for crap's sake, just get them, if you dont like em, Ill buy em from you, so what do you have to lose?
PM me if you think Im joking

nismaniac

don't get them because everyone else has them, get them because our maxes just look dam awesome with them! I run PIAA x-treme whites all around.

jonbth

Are the ones at southwest genuine nissan lenses?

maximamaybe

No. The ones on southwest are not genuine Nissan lenses. There is no difference in those and the ones on Ebay. If you do ebay, ask the seller to sell both to you and reduce shipping.

For my lights, I am doing the Polarg M4 194 wedge bulbs in the front. They are fairly white with a little blue tint. In the rear, I am using the $2 autozone bulbs. I hated the amber color so I went white up front. I have a buddy that did Amber LEDs up front and that looks good as well.

dobiegillis

I just put normal amber bulbs in the clears. Even bought some leds for the rear corners but they're worse in terms of brightness. I wish my rear lenses were silver on the inside. *sigh*

And I didn't know there were different pearl colors. Just got the car. But I have the original sticker. I'll look and see if it says. Update: Well I didn't realize Nissan had switched paints when they brought out the 2k2, but the sticker and .org confirms it. I wonder how much difference there is between icelandic and glacier pearl? Off topic tho.

BiggD23

There is a noticable difference between the two. I had an icelandic pearl 2k for a short time before I bought my glacier pearl 2k3. The glacier pearl seemed a little brighter but maybe that was just because the paint was brand new. I think I remember seeing a picture on here a while ago where someone had the 2 colors sitting next to each other.

damon41978

I just got the clears and installed them. I think they look great. The only problem is I don't have the bulbs. Who knows the cheapest place to get the bulbs from. I want either white, or white with bluish tint. Also, does anyone here know where to get a bulb for the inside of the car? I don't know what it is called, but I do know that it is not the dome light. It is the one in the front that usually lights the driver's and passenger's seats. Thanx.

02SEinStL

Here's a lame question...
How do the clears install?
I have them on the way to me, but as I look at the car, there is no visible screw like I'm used to...also they tell me there are no instructions.
I assume they can't be THAT tough, since so many have put them on successfully...

BiggD23

It's a piece of cake...the whole thing should take you less than 10 minutes. They pry out, the only thing is that you have to be careful that you are prying the correct side or they might chip. One side is made to pop out, the other isn't. I made a Word doc out of the How-to writeup that used to be on here, it includes pics of the whole process and everything. If you want a copy send me a PM with your email address and I'll pass it along.

get clears in the front and leave the ones in the rear red

trey

Do not do this!

NT2SHBBY

WTF are you smoking??? clears in front/stock back look hot....clears all around looks type unless the car is white, maybe titanium or sheer silver...

TZapper

IMHO, on a black color Maxima corners should be all red, black and red are made for each other

jeepik

iTrader: (2)

well i think they defintiely look ricey

i would like to see someone get the diamond cut one made for the 5th gen maxes.

that will look respectable, be clear and most importantly be legal

BiggD23

You think clear corners are ricey?

jeepik

iTrader: (2)

the style that's avaliable for the 5th gen maxes is definitely ricey

its just like an old civic clear corner.

the max has very uptodate tails and headlights, but putting the cheezy clears, without them being dimaond clear takes away from the appearance

i think it looks beeter color wise then the stocks, but looks like the first generation civic white tailights from the first stage of ricing form the early 90's

all the other cars have hte diamond clears avaliable, ashame there are none for ours

MaximaDisciple

Yes

MaximaDisciple

Why are you always dissin' on other peoples' car?! Beside clears w/red look like a damn candy cane! You got to coordinate!

Man my max looks tight at night w/ my clears and HID's
Gotta say though a week ago it almost cost me my licence-
I was hemmed up on JohnyWalker (my fathers B-day) not drunk,
I was sober after drinking lots of water-My wife was passed out wasted- but I drove home within literally two feet of my driveway a POPO pulled my azz over-
and since I had the Black Label still on my breath and my wife was still passed out like a waste , pulled me out of my car and gave me every test in the book- Like I said, i was sober
and surelly passed every test- So he let me go, but asked me to change the bulbs on the clears-('cause it resembles a police
vehicle- wa da fock!) Anyway almost got a DWi cause of 'em-

Like NWA rocks': "Fock da police!!!!" I'm not changin' shyt-

dobiegillis

I thought these clears were diamond cut.

I wish we could get euro style clears on the 5th gen. The ones I had on my 4th gen were nicer.
