I was really moven, lol. Luckly he only gave me a $50 ticket for my tint. I swear cops love to pull me over in this car, 5 times in 6 months. I also had a poor little bird fly into the bottom of my hood, the little fella died
Well anyways give me a call whenever and we can meet up. Monday is no good for me though becuase I really have to catch up on some work. Tues or Wed are good for me

ya this car seems to be a curse but chicks love it so i'm gonna just take it all in stride. i have ponly been pulled over like 2-3 times since i had the car. i hit a bird thursday tooo, but i was going like 60 on a backroad and tried to hit him
i hit him and me and my friend laughed so hard, we had to pull over i was laughing so hard. i talked to this guy i know, i work with his daughters at friendly's anmd he works at a body shop, he says it looks salvageable, not that bad, just heat it up anmd work it from teh inside then i still need it paitned but that's no biggie(100-150 bucks) i have monday taken up now too between waxing the car(he gave me some nasty wax and fixing the dent) but it looks like it's gonna be a cheap fix. i'll ttyl.-steve

Mystical2k2SE, I have no clue as to what your talking about
. If I wanted to put a widow kit on I would have to do a ton of custom work. No one makes that kit for our cars. Besides I don't like how it looks.Steve man your sick, I feel horrible if I hit something and I will avoid doing so at all cost(next to hurting myself). Good to hear about your bumper dude. BTW I am going to polish my intake manifold and runners in a few days
.Kloogy my rear is HOT HOT HOT, lol.

Maybe I will try that. I'm going to polish everything under my hood

The fed-spec o2 sensor goes behind the rear cat (S-pipe) so it will fit perfectly.

Hey Emax, I have a suggestion for you:
Dual exhausts...I think they would look really good and symmetrical on your minima. You could cut another hole into your bumper like I did, or do what I now wish I did: Mustang style...Fill up the stock hole with bondo (maybe the stillen kit has taken care of this?), and hook up pipes going out the the bumper at the very edges. Get some 4 inch chrome tips to hang outta there and your set.
The first is more conservative, the stang style is the more in your face.

The Mustang style looks cheap and as though you didn't spend the time to make a cut out so your just stretched the hangars and let it down low. Your style looks classic and nice, and very professional. Maybe emax95 will get a pair to follow up with his headers/y-pipe.-Cyrus

Thanks guys
Here is a pic of me, the SS and the stang. You can't really see the mustang's exhaust but it has huge chrome tips coming out at the very end of either sides of the bumper. I think mine look too close together from a distance, what do yall think?

I wasn't telling emax to do it, I simply asked if he had considered it. Emax is normally halfway decent to folks who ask him simple, non-offensive questions, unlike 50% of the people on this board. Needless to say, I lost whatever respect I had for him with the king **** attitude. Your "me too" comments have earned you a few brownie points, so you can go whipe your nose and chin now.

Looks freaking awesome..
You and Y2Kev have two of the nicest looking 5th gen Maximas I have seen.
One question though
How come the right side of your car has body colored pillars and the left has regular black ones?
lol, no one asked.. maybe I'm just weird like that to notice it ...
