People with Sterling Mist Maxima, I need tips/advice

So last thread I made was about Tail Lights(first mod), now moving on to matching color such as rims, side markers, headlights, and everything else. Feel free to show your Maxima so I could get an idea and apply them to my car as well.

I know it's dark, I never got an opportunity to take one during day light.

And also I haven't gotten to the part of lowering my car, but I will get to that part later.

Not sure if this is some kind of joke or an insult, but please do give out real answers. It would much be appreciate. If you don't have anything good to say then don't bother replying to my thread. Thanks.

Don't take it personal, we try to help and give our opinions, I still don't see what you did to the car if anything, but Welcome to the Forums

I suppose I will it let pass. What I was trying to do is make my car nice and new again it has few scratches on the sides. I don't know much about cars, though I'm trying to learn more about it. Like the topic say I ask for people with Sterling Mist color, what did they put onto their Maxima to make it more clean and sporty. It was also my fault for not putting detail of what I was trying to ask. Also Thank you for the welcome!

Way too specific of a topic, your not going to get answers that help, look up pictures of done Maximas and other cars and then start pricing around, find the look you like and go from there, (unless the look you like is "riced out" then get out of cars) don't be looking to copy someone else but rather make a car that you can be proud of and call your own, not a copy of another org members ride, be original but not too original that you ruin the car for the next owner

Wtf? No! No beating! ...Maybe a little...



blue_strip I did look up pictures of other Maximas, while no one really answered my question.. When I said "get an idea" I don't mean like actually copy someone else's car, besides the exterior may almost look the same, but under the hood is completely different. I've already setup my own performance mod, so no worries on that.

You'll get better results searching Sterling Mist in the Member Rides subforum versus telling people they should or shouldn't post in your thread, just saying. Forum baby steps. Welcome.

Here are my thoughts -- not that you may care but you asked. Colour matching lights, rims, whatever... are really up for individual preference. You will get as many positives as you will negatives. Reviewing others cars is really the best way to determine what you like.

If I were you I would make lowering your ride priority #1. You will get almost unanimous consensus that it is one if the best things you can do. Just look at her. She's screaming to be changed from 4X4 mode.
