I had been getting some questions about what I had done to my bumper so I thought I would share in the experience.


Here are the supplies I used for the fogs.
1.07-08 Max fog light covers. $8 each
2. 3" to 2" rubber coupler from plumbing section $7 each
3. Auto door trim molding. $3 (not pictured yet)
4. Pair of Fogs from Checkers auto $32.
5. Demel (already purchased)
6. Mesh (left over from Grill mod)(not pictured yet)

 

 

Here's some progress pics.
Show's more detail of the trim pieces I used to hide the cuts from the dremel.

 

 

 

BEAUTIFUL!!! Its basically what I want to do to the rear (mesh opening) except I have to make the cut out by hand. Ill check out Autozone for the door edge guard material to cover the edge after I make the cut out. In my online research I found someone else had done this too. Can you get some day time pics with the sun shining on the grill so its more visible. How much did the project cost?

 

BALLIN!!!!

 

Nice MAXX! Thanks for the PM. Pics are nice and the custom upgrade is the shizznit. Nissan should have done this to begin with. Dumb a**es!

 

I'll look for better pics.
I had spare mesh from doing my grill, an 18x42" powder coated gloss black piece cost about $70. The other items for the bumper was just over $60.
I tried looking for the trim product on autozone's website and couldn't find it.
I have some left in the garage, I'll see if they have a website.

 

great work !

Looks like it will be on the " To do list"

 

If and when you do this, feel free to hit me up w/ any questions.

 

I think I found the door edge guard material:

It is available at Autozone but with no pic on the website:

Here is the brand I got at autozone. Make sure you get the V shaped one.

Which one is the V shaped one. Ill go get some now

 

It's kinda a u shape, they also carry an L shaped one I bought by accident.
There are 2 pieces per package 27" long each. It also has its own adhesive inside the U so you shouldn't need any type of glue for it.

 

I saw them both there. I guess the L shaped one wouldnt work?

 

Very Very Nice !!

 

Thanks,
I've been gettin weird looks from other 6gen max owners in this area, thinking were siblings but from different dads.

 

Thanks Fastmax.

 

Good job, looks really clean and unique!

 

Thanks taz.
Appreciate it.
(I'll be hitting you up for one of those battery tie downs soon)

 

Hey man I saw your ride before and thought it was amazing how you did that! Awesome job and thanks alot for this! Might give it a go in a week or two!!

 

I would do it again. It's one of the mods I'm most proud of. And its pretty cheap.

 

that looks very clean. good job man.

 

Nice work indeed.
Looks very OEMish

 

Thanks guys. I was worried it might come out sorta "ricey".

 

nahhh u made the factory bumper look good. u pulled it off really clean at that 2

 

Looks clean man.
Up entill a few weeks ago i thought those other corner lights WERE the 6th gen fogs.

 

Thanks for the comments guys.

The corner lights are as useful as curb feelers. Thats why I had to darken them out w/ bluebats overlays.

 

Looks good, and breaks up the big "smilie" across the bottom...

 

a DIY write up would be nice.
im interested on doing this project this weekend!

just what i wanted.
useful fogs

 

Id like to see some GOOD daytime pics where you can see the mesh better. I know black cars are hard to photograph, but I wait til sun is lower in horizon and have it shining on the front.
