6th Gen Photo Request

Hi guys. I've been experimenting with site banner designs over in the Photoshop Forum, and am currently looking for front-end photos of all generation Maximas. Very specifically, I'm interested in shots where the roof line flattens out.

Here's a 3rd and 5th gen example. Notice how the undercarriage and roof line are both level, the tires are clearly visible, but the photo doesn't have any wide-angle distortion.





Apparently this is an uncommon angle. I've been trolling through the member rides, CarDomain.com, and even Auto Trader, without much success.

Of course, winter may be an awkward time to make this kind of request... it's not like people are going to go take pictures of their car at this time of year. But if you have something to offer, please post it here, or PM me for contact information.

Thanks!

Nice photos, but not exactly what I'm looking for.

Notice the height and angle of these pictures:

These may be a little too close or too high upward but check em out anyway...



The grill and headlights have been changed throughout also... you may be looking for stock photos?

You're right... much too close to the car. But pretty. I like the grill.

I'm not fully conversant with the grill and bumper variations on the 6th gen to always recognize stock vs. aftermarket. But a stock looking front end is probably a good idea.

Nice angle for the GTR bumper and hood. Stock bumper looks goofy from that angle.

Chernmax, you are about as far away from "stock" as can ever be imagined.

Bump on this...

C'mon guys, someone in the 6th Gen forum has to have the right kind of photo that we can line up next to these! I'm sure at least one of you own a camera, right? (Well, down south, or on the west coast, considering the crappy winter weather of late.)

OMG, that's it! The one on the right is EXACTLY the image I wanted.

Way to go, denbigh97! Thank you. Swing by the photoshop forum if you want to see what I've been working on. There's over a 100 posts in that thread, and lots of evolving ideas.

Thanks again, denbigh97. Well done.

Where did you get this front bumper and did you mod the grill? New to the Maxima and I like this look vs the stock bumper and grill

Nah, thats all stock. 04-06 Max front is completely different from the 07-08 Max. The only thing different are his lights.
