Nope. The tails were painted black except for where the brake, signal, and reverse lights are. Ive switched to the 98-99 style since then.

There is nothing JDM about the Maxima because there is no Maxima in Japan...

I30 is the closest you'll get to a JDM Cefrio. Anyone have the trunklid with the license plate and flush rear bumper on their i30?

Hes right. Unless you buy it in Japan, ship it over, and drive it here..... it ain't JDM.

ADM for life... I guess

POST YOUR JDM MAX'S
It's a contradiction. JDM cars are usually desirable because they were offered with different equipment than in the US, or simply weren't brought here at all. Nobody is going to post about their JDM converted Maxima because nobody has done the required modifications. Which with the exception of the 2nd gen being available with a Turbo VG and the 3rd gen GXE using a VE, there are really no benefits at all. It was actually the US who had more options for a change. The 3rd gen wasn't even available with a 5 speed in Japan.

Customization does not make a car JDM unless the modifications are specific to how they were served up in Japan.

2nd and 3rd gen Maximas were sold in Japan, in very few numbers.
