Whats up Adam? Hope you had a good weekend bro.

Headlight covers...
IMO: outdated. But on your max maybe they might look alright. I jsut would get sick of taking them on and off. The headlights look sweet already, I wouldn't want to cover them up. If I were driving a ford mustang with clouded yellowed headlight covers....then that might be a different story.
out.

They are about $50 + tax. You should be able to order them from your local speed/performance shop. Ventshade, GTS, and EGR make them for the 2k/2k1 Maxima.

purchase a set of AE lights or the bronze piece inside the AE and you'll have a nice change and still be with the times.

Yah I know the bronze lights on the AE are really nice, a few people on the board said they were 200+ from the dealer, so I'll pass tried to look for a junk AE, no luck, well if you know where I can get the bronze AE lights please tell me, thanks

Go to www.summitracing.com they're $32.00 and will take 1 1/2 weeks to get in, I'll probably order mine today. Look for GTS Styling headlight covers.

I ordered a set from JCWhitney, only indirectly for show - to save the stock lenses from sandblasting, they seem kind of vulnerable. I'd rather have a throw-away get blasted than have to spend big bucks on a new assembly.

I got my carbon fiber GTS Covers at Carparts.com for $25 after coupon.
When the bra is on the shiny clear headlights really stickout so I got the CF covers to match the color of my bra. They also look good when the bra is off or with just the hood piece on the car. They do decrease the amount of light from the headlights at night but you shouldn't drive with them on at night anyways.

I have more close ups of the covers here:
