They look good on white maxes, nice. If I were you I'd get the black trim painted body color.

And what's up with the stock SE rims in those pics? Are you putting the gen-2s on your wife's car?

if i had a 4th gen, i would clear out the lights and leave it. the red/clear 4th gen tails are one of the sexiest tailights out there imo

but for altezzas, those arent bad

i'm a fan.

how is the quality on those? i have gen 1's and of course it's not great but they've help up so far, starting to see some lil ish that i don't like with them but overall they're more appealing than stock. can't wait for some more pics...to bad they don't make them for 95/96's.

Yes, that is the side marker. These LED's are VERY bright!
At night, they look AWESOME. I'll take some pics at night with the tails lit up & you'll see
sidewinder740: No this is my car on my stock rims. I am running stock rims, waiting for the exhaust & dyno. I'll put the 18's back on after I re-dyno my car.
My wife's car is still absolutely BONE STOCK! She is very happy with it just the way it came from the factory.

Hey D.M.,

I think they look great on your car!

(-And personally, I wouldn't have put the Gen I altezzas on my car if you paid me).

The Gen II design, complimented by the use of LED's, is a tremendous improvememnt, IMHO.

(Tech Question: do the turnsignal and reverse lights utilize conventional 1157 incandescent bulbs? Anyone think it would be possible to replace these with the LED-type bulbs that use the standard 1157-type bulb base?)


Also, Does anyone already know if/when these will be available for the '95/'96 Maxima's????? (I have an email in to procarparts.com & am waiting for a reply - if anyone has the answer, please share). -I'll report back if/when I get a reply.

Thanks!

My gen 2 carbon fiber version should be here soon. We'll see how they look. I can't stand chrome versions..but maybe the CF version might look good. It's a gamble since no one has the CF version on a sterling mist max. If I don't like them, they will be on the for sale forum shortly

. . .except on a white car. That's the only color it can work with, imo, otherwise, it just looks cheesy.

I have a dark blue finish, so would likely go with the carbon fiber if/when the lights become available for the '95/'96. Gunmetal's not my style for this application. It just doesn't sit right with me for some reason.

Good luck w/ the CF/SM blend! (Hope it turns out as good as you want it to).

Dashing Max,

They look really good, I like them. Just a few personal suggestions:

1)Take off all those stickers
2)Take off the mud flaps
3)Take off the sunroof wind deflector
4)Get the Stillen side skirts/rears


Then IMO your Maxima would be VERY nice looking. That's my input anyways.

why don't you have GTR Rider photochop a quickie for you? Just to get a general look of how they'll match against your max?

They are disgusting, along with the Gen I altezzas (chrome, black and carbon)...

The "Sexima" style altezzas are the absolute ugliest tail lights in creation..

Altezzas could quite possibly be the worst aftermarket part manufactured for any car, I will never understand why anyone wanting to make their Maxima look better would put them on.

That's just my opinion, I could be wrong...but don't think I am
