i guess it's not bad as some giant tribal design covering the whole side of your car, but....

i don't think that design flows with the car and esp where you're car doesn't have that many exterior mods done, i would ATLEAST wait until after you get a body kit on it, if at all, to put on some graphics. but not my style IMHO.

in this thread we talked about it a bit, though the pictures are gone
http://forums.maxima.org/showthread....light=graphics

i think if you are going to put some custom graphic on you better spend alot of time, like maybe 3 months, coming up with different sketches and designs. remember you will have the on the car for awhile...

ANY graphics on a maxima = x 1 billion

if you want to be in "fast and the furious" you chose the wrong car

Although I personally wouldn't do it I think it looks OK. Not too dramatic and how the silver flows into the red looks good. Take the silver stripe off the bottom, lower the ride, tint the windows and go one size up with the rims and that would look sharp. Thumbs up for creativity.

I dont think there is a graphic that will ever look good on a max, but a drop always will.

Although you have probably got the picture by now I will still give you my opinion:
those graphics look terrible, do some more performance mods, you have to earn your stripes dog.

I think this is the proper formula for Maxima&Graphics:

( ) + ( )
