skeps updates for early 08 (56k beware)

i know most of u have already seen, but some have not. and plenty havent bothered to comment im sure. so i figured come over this way n post up some pix that ive taken it since i got it back 2 weeks ago.



new paint - went with the lambo blue
black roof
suicide hinge hood
smoothed out body lines in hood
color matched wheel inserts
rolled fenders in completely
new front bumper (from reggie, with minor adjustments)
re-located license plate to passenger side, at an angle
re-finished shaved doors, shaved trunk, and old gas door location
billet oil cap
re-hinged taillight to swing open further
resurfaced gas fill area
replaced old ugly poppers and replaced with AUTOLOC, put on door instead of doorjamb










and for the pix










and if i forgot anything then sorry, but enjoy!

S***! that's right. I forgot! Your car ain't no longer just the "regular" Maxima! Your's is the fancyed up version

Its too bad though, cuz I think the red led would look amazing against that blue color

Elegance comes to mind from the beginning not to mention flawless. You've definitely made the MaXiMa stand out from amongs other 4 doors. Not to big a fan of brown, however you've pulled it off and the way it flows from the dash gauges into the doors and then the enclosure.....awesome! Definitely a step above the others. The new shoes and the blue laces are for sure an eye catcher.

NICE JOB!!!!!!!

Question Skep, what did you use to cover the front bumper?
I'm thinking of also covering some part of the front bumper. just curious.

Thanks

Max was totalled about 5 months ago, had a ton of issues with nissan( go figure) and now i await the 7th gen at my local dealership. I bought a 2005 Excursion and am dreading the gas but love the fact that if i get hit again it wont hurt me ...........it will destroy what ever hits me..LOL! I lost all my audio in the collison, i had spare batteries in the trunk and during impact it smashed the cells and sent arc's shooting through my equipment....can you say TOAST!! Anyways i had a seperate insurance policy(a rider)
and i must say that it was a good thing because my insurance for the car woud only cover up to three grand and the damage was almost 20 on just the equipment alone(retail)......so anyways i got all my stuff replaced and am installing it all back into my Excursion.

This is just the watered down version but you get the point!..LOL!!
Hope all is well for you and family, car is coming along very nicely...i am so jealous!!...LOL!! keep me posted bro and if you have any questions or ever need anything concerning the Max PLEASE let me know!!!

PEACE<

thanks every1!

cfr, i was gonna change the dash lights to blue and such but the wood goes in so well with the orange so it stayed as is

scrui i believe he used a plastic material similar to what the bumper is made of ot fill it in. i got that bumper from THE PRESENCE and just did a lil additional work to his creation.

chef, sorry to hear. glad to hear ur good now tho. when u get the new 1 u know its time for more mods haha. keep in touch tho man. u know where im always at

robert yeah i gotta sa the dvincis look great. they make good stuff. and convenient that they r located bout an hour away from me. ill be posted up at their booth at the next car show they get a booth at down here
