Hamy your car looks beautiful. I was debating on what sides I was going to get, you have sold me on the Stillen sides.

P.S.- Some of you guys have been giving PJ a lot of love for making this lip, can a brother have some love too. I called PJ many times before he finally agreed to make the lip, and called him many times after the initial orders didn't come up like we thought and he was about to give up on it. Can a brother have a hug??

wow, it looks really good. I like it, it smooth out the front bumper straight line. Seven months you waited for it? That's quite a long wait but perhaps worth it since it came out really good.

Hamy, your car looks sweet.. I have 2 suggestions, though:

1) Get tint, even though cops will hassle you.
2) Here's my paypal address: biglithiumforbrain@hotmail.com. Go ahead and send some funds my way.

To answer a few questions: The tails were painted as-per instructions I found right here on the ORG. Just buy candy red paint that is transparent and spray through the bulb hole into the bottom of the housing. Its not as easy as it sounds, make sure you take the tails off before trying to do this.

Now the side markers and running lights I'm using in the Max are all from Autolumination.com. They are 6 bulb LEDs with a focused lense. They come in all kinds of colors and lenses. I was running PIAA wedge LEDs in the headlights for a long time but these are so much brighter...well with 6 bulbs they should be though. Anyhow hope that clears some things up. Once again thanks for the replies. Oh and the camera, its a Canon G5 for the night shots on very low res, and the day pics were taken using just a basic 3mpix Sony Digi cam.

Dude... Now that is what I am talkin about. The perfect fit. This is exactly what the 03-04 needed. Compliments the car better than anything I have seen on the market. Brotha, I think you just bumped up to the top of my list of favorite Maximas. Second to the one I had

I've been pulled over 2 times before for tint on my other cars so I know its going to happen. I'll wait till summer hits and its hot till I spend the $$. Once again thanks so much for the kind words. It really makes the hard work and money spent seem worth it!
I knew that Dare license plate looked familiar Im from Camp Hill, and they do pull over for tint all the time. I have never seen your car on the road, but ill be looking out for it. Looks really good!

Actually mine are the "white" ones. I think they use 3 blue and 3 pure white LEDs to make it look "hyper white" so to speak.

Hmm, I guess being basically on opposite sides of the state has alot to do with it but I'm in the Philly suburbs of PA and have had no problems running with 35% platinum tint for about the past year. (knock on wood) In fact I'm going to get it redone with 20% onyx later this spring! I see cars with limo all around every day.

As for the kit...looks awesome! Every time I think I've decided between the Stillen Classic and Maxxtuning someone else posts pix and throws me off!

Wow, your car looks amazing. The MT lip looks great on your car. Now I don't know which to get, Stillen or Maxx Tuning.

You have to get the stillen sides to make it look right, but that's just my opinion.

For some reason, I think the MT lip looks best on dark maxes. Probably because it doesn't make the front bumper look to low?
