The BMW black on chris's car is a lot darker than kh3. Hopefully with 7 coats the paint will be a little bit more resistant to scratches and chips. My paint is probably a little faded being about 10 years old, but chris's black just looked incredible.

black on black crime :lol:

Today I am going to go get much needed tint. 20% all the way around with 5% band on windshield. It will be much better than the purple, bubbly, and blurry sh*t that I have on there right now. I can barely see out of my back windshield b/c it is so blurry.

Anyway I can't wait to see what your car will look light with the 5.5 HIDs and the BBK. Are you going to try to get the rear BBK?

man thats beautiful. what springs do u have thats its too low

car looks Great!!! but i think it stood out, and looked a bit better before though.

Nah no rear bbk, just saving up for headers right now. I wanna check out the tint sometime this week. Lets meet up wednesday night.

It's really going to get hot in the sun. :grinno:

Your miss reading me.. Prolly my fault. Your previous color looked more unique and I thought would be more succesfull in shows. I dunno I see alot of modded black maxes and its nice to see sterling mist looking all sexy. The body kit looks good, man my next max will be in some local shows and your car made me consider sterling mist for my next car.

Anyways you should work on that interior ahhhhhhhh

Nice car man!!

Gorgeous!!

wow, so much nicer. the Lip is a big improvement. black looks awsome when its kept clean, especially such a quality color black, good work!!

any plans to do a 5speed swap?

Thanks for the compliments, i probably just misread what you said. Although the sterling mist may have been unique, i guess i just got tired of it. I have always had black cars so i guess i was missing it. Yeah i am going to do a few interior accents but nothing to serious. I go to LSU so i don't want to have to deal with hoping people don't jack my tv's and all that mess. Most of the things i have right now would take a skilled mechanic to take off quick.

Thanks bro, no plans for 5 speed swap. If the tranny goes, which i hope to god it doesn't, there will deffinetly be a regeared bullet proof tranny made to put in this beast. I have to drive this car everyday in stop and go traffic so right now the 5 speed is not worth it.

i would just like to thank everyone for the compliments and critcism. And for those who don't like :sprint2: . HAHA Just kidding

i like it. they painted the inside of the doors also? how much it run you? kinda stinks thought they didnt paint the engine bay. black looks better though and rims look nice also. maybe a 5 speed later? and a black interior? u want a dash from a 2k2 max? lol i got one for sale also with a carpet and roof linear and all the palstic pillar covers. basically everything except the seats and door panels nad rear deck. let me know.

your car is lookin really nice..is your sc intercooled?

yummy..... BMW colors rock! :wall:

hey if you don't mind me asking...how much did it cost to roll your fenders?
looks awesome

To get a maxima that low you have to have coilovers. Chris you have Toser or something like that right. Very rare coilovers.

Chris get a 3" exhaust, Please!!! get it custom if you have to

or you can just make it easier for me to be the fastest Black maxima in Baton Rouge, which is fine

How bout this? we'll just do both. Today i am going to call warpspeed to check and see if i can get him to make me custom 3" y pipe and i will order the rest of the pieces for the cat back. Then around christmas i can get the headers. That way you can keep staring at my beautiful taillights :hide:

you are correct :D

only trouble is now you have to keep that bish clean and swirl free!!!

looks awesome man

oooo shiny.

Spig i just solved the 3" exhaust problem. Check this link out. Credit IceY2k1

Yeah that cutout is boost activated. That actually may be a good setup for a SC. I would get a 3" y pipe and then the cutout and then the b pipe and muffler that you have now. Turbo can use a 3" always b/c the better flow helps it spool faster. With a SC you would loose some torque while you are not boosting with a 3" I would think. Another option is an electric cutout. I would also be careful of that exhaust cutout hitting the ground with you being so low.

If you really want the headers just get them. Personally I would rather this:

To me it looks like a turbo

How much did it cost, I want to change the color of my car too,

looks good. If i wouldve gotten a color change i personally wouldve gone with a more "custom" looking color that would make the car stand out WAY more. black is pretty plain...looks good though.

Looks great with the new front lip - but it looks as good as it does black as it did silver.

looks really nice, in like it, but for some reason, i like the 'old' look of your max, but over all, sweet.

IMHO I liked the car before. Everyone has the Aero lip and your car stood out alot more.

I know sometimes i loved it and most of the time i thought it looked kinda ricey. I guess i am just trying to give my car the more refined look.

its simply georgeous, i have always loved the beamers pure black. congrata on the change!!!
