What did you do to your 8th Gen Maxima today?

Bummer that the Opt7 distance isn't as great. But how is the distance compared to the stock halogens? This was top on my list to get, but this post had me re-guessing. Plus also in the pictures, the difference in temperature is very noticeable against the DRL.

Upgraded my trunk lighting. http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B...ilpage_o00_s00
Before.
After.
I extended the wiring for the LED strip with some wire I had laying around and wrapped it with electrical tape to make it long enough to mount behind the amp. Strip comes with 3M double sided tape pre-applied on it.
Didn't notice one of the LEDs was burnt out till just now, didn't really inspect it all that much when I got it...assuming it came like that, not a big deal.

Just dropped off my car to get roof top wrapped in gloss black vinyl. Led headlights should arrive today and the opt7 led fogs, Philips LED reverse and license plate bulbs this weekend. Still debating on tints because of state laws.
Also for those that had their chrome trim pieces wrapped around the Windows, how much did you pay? They quoted me 245 for roof and like 395 for just the chrome trims wrapped. Is this too much? I do know it's much more work to do them, but that much more?

Looks good, I'm not sure how they justify the $395 price for the window trim...I've never done it myself so I can't judge as far as how labor intensive it is.
I plasti-dipped the chrome trim on my 14 Camry and that trim went all the way around the windows, not just the bottom. It looked much better blacked out, but it had that rubbery feel to it and I was planning on getting it wrapped at some point till I traded it in. If I didn't have to touch the trim the dip would have been perfectly fine, but I would **** with it and rub it when my window was down and my arm hanging out the window, most of the time when closing the door my hand would glide across the trim and it obviously wasn't smooth like the chrome was. I considered dipping the Maxima in this way too, but I'm not sure yet, like I said before I kinda like the chrome on my Gun Metallic.

Washed her and then applied poorboys white diamond show glaze. Pictures don't do any justice. Also completely cleaned interior, applied leather masters leather cleaner, conditioner, and protectant. When it gets warmer, I want to do this same all over interior and exterior but also add wax and protectant.

Was that a direct plug in to the socket? Or did you cut the wires to hook it up?

Big brake
Did you do this yet? Where did you get parts? The stock brakes on these cars are so bad after a few hard hits they fade like crazy and shake.

So I decided to go ahead and piece some parts I had laying around for an axleback since I wanted to avoid the drone of a muffler delete. im quite pleased with the result but not 100% sold on it yet hence why I put it for sale locally already :/

Center Console Tray
This came in the mail today and I thought I'd share as I found it very useful. I was on amazon and came across this tray for the center console that makes a top level for smaller items, and all larger items can still be placed below. All of my previous nissans had 2 compartment center consoles, so this resolves that issue. Not sure why the 16 console doesn't do that and is so small. It has a non slip mat that even says maxima on it. It seems to be of good quality, and the fitment is perfect. It is fixed and just sits on the edges, so you have to remove it to access below. It's a little overpriced for what it is, but all of my business cards, coins, etc. we're getting buried in the tiny compartment. Cheers
