I went a bit overboard with the stock alarm light (after seeing UNFADEABLE MAX's post) didn't turn out as clean as I had hoped, I think I need to buy another piece and give it another try. It's bright as f*ck though!!! (pics do no justice)





I couldn't get a good pic, but this thing lights up my entire garage!!


New front and rear coming soon!!!! (the cornering light pic tells the tale of the current bumper...)

New RLM bumper:


New 07 rear up in the rafters!!


That's all for now...

Well hope you have better luck with this new front bumper. That last one was fragile.

Oh wow....where did you get those corner lights. I can't find them anywhere. I tried to replace the factory corner lights with LED's but they don't aim out as much as the stock ones...would these be better???

If you look at the pics, they aren't in the stock location since I have the RLM bumper. Look on Autolumination.com for bulbs...1156.

You are certainly a pro. I am new to this site and just bought a 06 Maxima SE. I want a grill but don't know which one is the best. I want to do it right the first time.

Yeah the 07 front and rear will fit on any lower year they are still using all 6th gen body.. I got the 07 front end ... The thing about the rear is that if they are from dealer they will have the sensors and if they are after market some dont have the sensor holes...
