gordoe i got a few questions for you. i've been wanting for the longest time to black out the chrome trim on my max. from the pics you sent me it looks like the chrome trim around the windows are attached with double sided tape. am i wrong about that. im a do it yourself kind of guy and just wanted to see how i should go about taking off the chrome pieces.
Thanks to all you guys for your very nice words about my Mamba! I really appreciate it! I have a little suprise coming up in the next few weeks! I just had a little fun with the Mamba! Here are the answers to some previous questions, sorry I haven't been on here in a while posting. The tire size on the 20's are 245/35/20 and my tint is 5% rear and 40% front.
i'n not sure if the trim around the windows is double sides tape, but I can recall the body shop telling me it was some sort of glue, which double sided tape in my own mind can probably replace it. Remember that most of the chrome is just an illusion, it's painted plastic and the window trim is the only metal. Goodluck with the project man! Post up the pics when you finish it up! I would love to see it!

So I did a muffler delete on the Mamba, removed the mufflers and it has a nice growl to it, I'll probably do the Borla exhaust later on. I put on some flat black exhaust tips that were Magnaflows off of a NSX and I just got em powdercoated. I'll post up sound clips when I get a chance.



A few weeks ago I took my wheels to the powdercoater and decided to have some fun. So this is what I did. I know most of you guys won't like them, but hey the wheels were just gonna be sitting in the garage accumilating dust why not have some fun with 'em! All I can say is whether you love it or hate it, you can't deny it!


You'll get some heads turning for sure. Looks like the green lanterns car

collecting dust? People would have bought those sport rims from you. The cost of them from Nissan isn't cheap at all.

Gordoe I'm absolutely lovin the look of the Max bro keep it up!! As far as the chrome door trim, I was wondering if using a dark strip of tint would maybe black it out?? Only reason being is I wanna keep the car as less possibly permanently modded as possible (if that makes sense lol)

Thanks alot bro I'm definitely gonna look into that. What would your difficulty level be on it? Or is it more time consuming?
