Aww crap are those yours? He posted them up over at NICO, funny what a small world these boards can become. So then spill the beans!!!

I do stand corrected my friends, 04MAXXXFreak has the connection as these are his door sills in the pic...funny ****!

 

LOL No worries bro, it sure as hell is a small world. I came on here and I'm like.. damn those look familiar... oh **** they're mine LOL.

Robert told me he's gonna post it up on NICO to advertise the work.. Correction: we BOTH got the connection to get these done lol. The plate is made out of scratch-resistant plexiglass. I posted pics on the 6th gen org.. but here they are...

PS. Sorry for the blurry shots.. it was almost 3 am when i took the pics. Also, that's my work room so excuse the dirty carpet..

Here are some pics of the finished product....



Dark shots...

 

Very cool, is it very difficult to install?

 

Looks very good! The colour is the same like the A33 sills from Paradox.
Can you give us some more info please

 

Those look awesome man... How much they go for?

 

Thanks guys for the compliments... I'm glad you all liked them. They ran me around $450 for everything... It sounds like a lot, but like every other mod we do, we get what we pay for. Material alone cost $350+ and labor, etc.

Installation wasn't as bad as I thought. I wired the rear sills to the rear doors step lights. and the front sills to the front foot wells. It took me about an hour or so to get them installed. And here they are...

Pics of them installed...

 

AWWWW JUST F'N SICK!!!! mad props on this mod!!!!

 

I like it!

 

I like it. Is there any way to change the color of the light to white. Also is carbon fiber available.

 

Looking good... I would also be in for CF...

 

04maxxxfreak, that's some real nice work. Who showed you how, was it Diggs, Armstrong or Caine? I also like the red brick in the background, is that your work too? Those sills in red/carbon fiber will look real kool!

 

those look sweet...white light would look hot

 

Hey guys..

sorry for the delay in response. I'm not the one making them, but I do have someone that does make them... which made them for me. The ones you guys see in the pics above are available, and when it comes to light colors... the only ones available are blue or white. However, white, during daytime, looks pinkish LOL... So i'd be very careful when I choose white as a color of lighting in the background of your sills.

The only backgrounds available for the custom work in my sills (w/MAXIMA and the lines lighted) are black background or aluminum (silver) color. OR you can choose to have one of the sills above in the group of sills pic. I think he can make it say anything you want instead of MAXIMA in the middle. I haven't tried the other sills, so I'm not sure how they're installed, but mine was made using my stock sills.

I hope I answered all your guys' questions..

 

cf cf cf cf cf ooo ya and CF!

 

LOL some's gettin excited.

 

Hey, how about if we have our online name put on the sill. Mine would be DEUSEXMAXIMA of course. Also, is cf available?

 

are you guys not reading what i'm typing? read post #53.

 

Is there anyway you can get a picture of the words looking pink.. I'm just curious what it looks like..

 

yeah they def look good, we just did a porsche door sill wrapped it in carbon fiber it already had the illuminated sills but it looked incredible

 

At this point, it doesn't matter where they came from, all that matters is that you got'em on your car ant that **** is HOT! I'd like some in red myself! I'mma have to wait though, cuz $450 just ain't in the budget right now. . . .

 

THATS what I want!!!

 

where in that post on #53 do you talk about CF? am i a

 

holy **** 450 for door sills??!!? thats crazy. no offense but it seems like a waste of money just to have the worlds maxima light up on your door sill. i mean DAMN. but hey i guess we all have our priorities some want fancy light up door sills some want to go fast. i can't say either is right or wrong but i will comment on that price guys:

I would just my bring stockers to a custom shop, trust me it'll be cheaper. a place like RAD in NE would do that for under 300 most likely. Even a decent car audio shop would probably do this for you if they are familiar doing custom installs.

Also to do this yourself fwiw, and i honestly believe anyone could do a decent job at this:
take stock one, cut out maxima in the letters you want with a dremel, install plexi/aluminum/whatever you want as well, install leds, install in car. $50 bucks later you have your sills and better yet YOU made em!

why not contact paradox and see who made em for the 4th and 5th gens as well? get a run of 50 made or something.


I'm just try to give you guys some options other then spending $450 for some light up door sills. and out of curiosity how does the guy who makes these spend $350 in supplies? other then the CF everything should be pretty cheap that he is using...am i missing something?

 

Ok I'm not sure if YOU actually even understand the process of making these. How about YOU make them for the prices you mentioned above and I will personally buy them from you for that much...???

First off... they're scratch-resistant plexiglass, which you, everyone and & I know is NOT cheap. The lettering is cut out from vinyl underneath the Plexi itself and it includes the lines on both sides of the Maxima.

Secondly, the LED underneath the plexi is not just a typical LED... it's as thin as a sheet of paper to be able to fit without any problems and to light up the MAXIMA and the lines evenly without any hot spots unlike regular LEDs do. Each front sills required 2 flat LED sheet strips/sill to cover the left and right half of it. The back sills require 1 flat sheet strip/sill on each side (driver & passenger). Each of which cost $25/per strip = $150 ONLY for LED sheet strips underneath the plexiglass.

Third, each strip is connected to a processors... like a fuse basically, which requires eash strip to be wired separately for the electric current to be even, and for the light not to flicker. It also serves the purpose of burning the processors in case any electric shorts happen to avoid damaging the LED sheet strip and to protect your car's interior power.

So basically...

- $150 for 4 front/2 rear LED sheet strips
- $50/door sill for plexiglass, cutting the plexi, plexi glue, scratch-resistant coating, vinyl underneath the plexi that says the MAXIMA and the lines to each side of it, and 6 processors (1 per LED strip) to avoid any shorting out your car's interior lights.

That's a total of $350 only in supplies + $25.00/sill for labor = $450.00 If you think you can make them for a cheaper price, please be my guest and show me (us) what YOU can do with your "less than $300" or your "$50."

 

LOL I said in post #53 that only Black & Aluminum backgrounds availABLE... if you want your sills to light up like mine.... OR you can choose one of the other sill in the 2nd picture that only light up the MAXIMA .

 

can you link me to these sheets of LEDs?

 

i want this done.


anyone>>

 

The threads two years old. Good luck.

 

Well, you can ask Dead Bolt himself on his website 6thgenmaxima.org and I'm sure will be happy to point you in the right direction.

 

GREAT JOB

 

i thought this would have been a popular mod

seems like a select few got it

 

Yeah, it's not the most popular thing because of the amount of money that it costs to get something like this done. If the interior is that important to you then you might as well do it just for your own personal satisfaction and to show off of course.

 

Damn we have some diggers around these days...

 

I like the idea, but can you do it in orange to match the other interior lights??

 

looks good

 

The 7th Gen 2012 MY will have illuminated kick plates maybe those can be modded to fit?
