both audi S4 lights are in (pics)

the lights are in and functional. The only remaining work is a custom grill and bodywork to fill the gaps on the sides.

they are 6000K HIDs in the projectors and 100 watt nokian bulbs for the high beams.

You could do that with a modified I30 hood and grill probably.

looks very nice

at night one probably would not even be able to tell that it is a maxima, judging by the headlights.

One thing though
looks like there is a considerable gap where the parking lights used to be on the side.. what do you plan on doing there?

that would be the body work I was talking about needing to get done in the first post.

I was thinking that... but I'm not sure about the angle of the lights because they are different than the maxima ones

that would save me a lot of money... but it does kinda look bad... I'm thinking about painting the whole car this winter so if I do that then I may just live with the holes until then...

I was also thinking about getting some kind of hose to carry air from the hole behind the drivers side one to the intake (but not seriously)

NOTE: two new pics added to first thread

Aaron, did you have to cut away at the hood at all? Where else do you have to fill in besides the corner lights?

The lights are beautiful. I'm very jealous. After I saw the pics I thought the same thing briefly. You could even make a little scoop of sorts to ram air I don't mean to discourage you but I've recently given up on my cars exterior. I love my car and will continue to wash and wax it but, I'll never get it repainted, unless it's at someone else's expense. Every day I find a new scratch, chip, turd, whatever. It's so annoying that I can't justify the price of a paint job only to see it ruined so quickly.
