they still have orange front clears, they live in new jersey, and they got funny things running down the sid eof the car. the hood is sweet though. i'd like to see a hood like that for 5th gens...

opening the normal way of course.

On one hand I'm curious to know what those graphics on the side really look like but at the same time . . . . . I am frightened.

The 1st car has Altezzas. He can blow money on Altezzas, but no front clears.
The 2nd car is clear for lift off...

Re: what's wrong with this pic?

Lots of money and work involved, but no taste. The orange clear I don't like, but some people do.

The graphics are too small, too weird, and don't flow with the lines of the car at all.

The wheels look too small, and the car is too high for a show car, and the sidemarkers look goofy all alone on the front fenders like that, plus they're too high.

The hood is just a$$ ugly. The hood doesn't slope nearly enough for those scoops to flow. Looks like these big pimples or something. Like he just slapped them on top of the hood (which he did).

The owner is from Jersey ... which explains why everything is pretty much wrong with that car.

Nooo its not...you can see that silver a/c tube and the black spark plug wiring harness to the right of it. Same positions as FWD. Check it out in your car.

A Giant Condor sh%t on the sides of the first car....

As far as the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade float goes, there are too many things wrong with that one to list.

But, let's start...

1: The wing from the F-16 does not go with the car
2: The Golden Palace.COM advertisements do not add to the splendor
3: Whoever sold Uncle Ben the car needs to be taken out back and shot
4: (place any comment you want here...)

Other than the decals and the amber lenses I think the first car looks pretty good, nice rims. The second car, well,

After looking at it some more, I get the impression that the owner is just following trends. The altezzas, the wheels, the sidemarkers, the graphics. There is nothing original about that car. I'll bet that the reverse hood went on right after the Fast and the Furious came out. A decent amount of money went into that car, but none of it is new or even unique. And I'm positive that when the Fast and the Furious 2 is released, he'll have every mod from that movie too.

Good thing I didn't make that show.

I would've gotten my *** kicked by all those bling bling cars. The show is run by some really cool guys that know what they are doing. It's not like HIN where it's so freaking dark. You can't tell between a primered car and a car with a custom paint job.

I like the idea of using orange lense for that car. the car won't win any prize so putting the orange lense is good making people wonder "what's wrong with this car?". kind of draw attention.

I think that car looks better than half of the people on this board. He has a nice audio setup and his ride is clean. Everyone on this board is a bunch of haters. If your car isn't stock looking with some kind of 5 star rims then its rice. The only ones who have slammed cars are people with air bags because 4th generation maximas have such a huge gap. Stop hating on people who do other things to their maxima besides clears rewiring fogs lights and an intake that adds +25hp which now makes them beat a viper!!!!!!!!!
