I started the swap about a week ago, so far everything has gone smoothly.
I'll update you guys as I get more parts in. Tell me what you think!

old 04 bumper

the teardown


07 bumper install


hood closed without grill

 

fogs added


grill added

 

 

Good job, that's where Im at except I have the heads too.

 

Are you using the oem fogs? I just got my hood in, I will order my heads first week in march

 

Yes, Oem with 6K HID. Same as the head. Where did you get the hood.

 

I got the hood from a local junk yard, it was $75 big ones. Im going back to get more parts this weekend off that car, it was hit by a semi from the rear other than that its in pretty good shape

 

niice touch.... nice prices too if you need fogs let me know

 

Lucky, I wish I had that luxury. I have to pay dealer prices for my hood since I can't find it anywhere.

 

I had to pay dealer prices, too - I looked for 2 months for a hood with no luch at all.

 

lol, im stuck in the same position. i have everything but the hood. i ordered all mine from nissan for the conversion. im using 35w h11 3k hids. 35w d2s 6k for the headlight (oem was 4300k) and and 35w h3 6k for the fogs

 

do you have a pic with all your Hids on?

 

coming along nicely..nice job

 

Is this your 04 with the mods ek9?

 

nice swap man... it already give your frontend a whole new look. would love to see what it looks like after paint.

 

His probably looks very similar to mine with the 6k hids, LED turn/ running lights, and 3K 35watt PIAA bulbs:





Sorry there not night shots but you get the picture!

 

Looks good, are you going to do something to close the gap between the bottom of the headlights & where the bumper meets up? Or leave it alone for now?

 

timwdv - ill try and get some pix this weekend.

slvrmax07 - the difference is that i still am using the 04 headlights.

starclassic71 - ??

 

very nice, looks like your doing the work yourself props on that!

 

Just got them today. Bought them for 15 bucks new from Nissan Dealer.
Part numbers in case someone needs them:

26915-ZK30A
26910-ZK30A

 

looks good. startin mine once weather cools down. got EVERYTHING cept headlights wich are on the way

 

its actually a very easy project besides getting the parts, dropping the bumper was a piece of cake installing the grill was even easier and as far as the fog light harness im following this link

http://forums.maxima.org/6th-generat...d-install.html

after i get the hood ill paint the hood or probably the whole car over, i have a couple of dings here and there from stupid walmart shoppers hitting my car but ill post some pics of the 07 wing and rear bumper when i get a chance

 

oh yea i got those just not sure which fogs i want to use the original oem fogs or some 4'' piaa clear fogs with 6k HIDs before i put the finishers on

 

its a small bumper bracket under the headlights that hold up the bumper at the point causing it not to have a gap, i just havent had the time to bend them up to hold it in place, probably will do so when it goes to the body shop to get sprayed

 

those supports were missing on my car...when i installed them it made a world of difference

 

it sure does i am in the process of removing them and pushing them up a few inches so that the gap between heads and the bumper are slim to none

 

omg, im tryin to tihnk off hand, i dont remember those being on mine when i did the swap. i wonder how much those brackets are.

 

Nice job so whats happends if you don't change the hood can't you post a pick is there much over lap?

 

nice job

 

they are like $7 i'll get the part number, you should be able to see the bracket right under the headlight if not get a flat head and pry it a bit to see if its mounted on it, the bumper has a hole for where it needs to go

 

I think it's a reinforcement Clip. Mine had them.
