not feelin' it and just like a member said, simple is good - personally, i like it simple and clean and deus - you got a great lookin' car, please don't add any more red to it - if i were you, i'd even get the red stickers on the side off but then again it comes down to a matter of preference. don't overdo it, the grille and the wheels, good nuff - no more stripes or red lines, it's gonna killl the cars look and i'd still take all the stickers off


p.s: i saw a picture you posted recently on the 6th gen - your car looked AMAZIN' - please keep it that way and don't think of anymore reds anywhere - it looks really clean that way...

Red door handles??? I'm seeing red!

Friends don't let friends drive (with too much) red.

If you went with red stripes on your mirrors and red door handles you would have a GrimMax (grim looking that is).

Just messin' with ya Grim. It's all in fun. But seriously Deus, less is MORE. Now go out and enjoy that badazz ride of yours.

Damn you Coolmax!! LOL!!!!


Deus...

IMO Keep them. I just picture seeing your Max rollin the opposite direction and me seeing that red and it completing throwing me off from the fact that your car is a Max. Would you rather drive a COOL MAX... or a HOT MAX?

LMAO!!!

Revenge is sweet!!

J/P Cool all love brotha!!

I wouldn't do it. It'll turn from red accents to a two tone red/black maxima.

Deus, try lowering or raising the thin strip so it's not so much in the middle of your mirrors.

Hey Dues,
Just do what you feel instead of asking for approval from the majority. I actually think it isn't too bad since you got a little red/blk going. Remember that its your car and if it floats your boat (haha punz) then you do what you gotta do!
I vote for a turbo for your next mod! better yet make it a twin and put chern in his place lol

Good idea. I took the stripe off and put it on the lower fold of the mirrors. I think it looks better.

I usually do what I want, but I do value everyones opinions, cuz we're all in this together. I know someone who installed a twin turbo on a 2002 Altima. Ill hit him up and see what we need to do to get it on the Maxima. He is just a local guy so it would be a one-off set up.

What is your final decision Deus? Or are you still thinking?

I think it would look great still.

Why 6th genners seem afraid of striping their mirrors?

I do not know the answer to that question but I think, it is a smart decision not to do the striping.

I've beel lurking the forums for a while and every post that I see you make I can't help but scream rice. There are cars out there that are tastefully modded, you on the other hand can't seem to grasp this concept.

NICE...

Dont listen to them.. It's YOUR ride, and you will be flossin it. It looks nice.. I like the look and it does complement the car. It brings attention to the front and side... I do like the lights in the back already....

Deus, ive watched your car for over 3 years...NO...it looks perfect. Less is more. Leave it as-is! Maybe you need to buy another car to mod (keep the max of course)!

If less is more then why even "mod"? You do stuff to stand out from the ordinary.

To Deus... obviously you've considered this otherwise you wouldn't even waste your time posting it. I feel that a lot of people are just on the rice-detective bandwagon. I dont really see how it's too ricey. I think people who ride 4x4 on 20" and body kit is rice, but that didn't stop people from doing it because they like it how it is. So Deus, just do what you feel right.
To be honest... your car couldn't be any more subtle, so the pin-stripe isn't gonna do the "hey look at me" affect any more than as is.

Hey man... Fitty told me go 'head switch the style up, and if they hate then let 'em hate, and watch the money pile up

Deus asked for opinions, we gave them. I think some nice graphics maybe Deus is looking for; and with the way he modded his car, it could look badass. I agree with the less is more comment because I don't feel the mirror stripe.

"mad-max" has them. I forget what they're called but its smaller than your current piece by your roof. As for the trunk spoiler, I'd go for '07 if I had your car, but I don't.

Next "Red" Mod



It is also flame resistant.

Sorry Deus, I couldn't resist. I like the simple black with the understated red trim on the rims and grill.
