Here's some pics of my car. I can finally say, that with the exception of a few minor things, I'm done with my car for a while. I put a lot of time and money into it this summer, time to enjoy the rewards.

Onto the pics...

Before I post a pic of the rims, I would just like to say that I LIKE THEM and for the strength, price, practicality (keeping them on all year round) and look, they're perfect for me. The drop makes them fit and they look much better on a sterling mist than on any other color I've seen them on, here on the ORG at least.

(BTW thats a K-Sport coilovers drop)
If I recall, 25 3/4" up front, 26" even in the rear.

Comments are welcome, both good and bad. Thanks all for looking!

All the best,

looks good, nice and clean. for your amp install, you should have drilled the holes for the wires closer to the amps so the wire dont show as much. but still looks great! not sure if 5th gens come with carpet everywhere in the trunk but looks like you didnt cover some areas where you put the sound deadening. keep up the good work.

Very nice setup. I especially like the red, white, and yellow connectors cleanly installed in your passenger footwell. They almost look factory. Good job

Thanks, keep em comin!

Actually, that's one of the few small things I need to finish up - I'm recarpeting the trunk liners to match the sub box and amp rack.

I am a Rutgers student, yes. One more year to go!

Those RCA connectors on the passenger side are flushmount. They're auxiliary inputs for my AVN. Video goes to the screen, audio goes to the stereo (naturally).

Thanks all for the praise. I like to say that I'm done with it for a while but soon enough I'm going to find something else I need. The mod bug will bite again!

The murano rims look really nice on a drop 5th gen. If the suspension was left stock it would look off but the way it sits looks good. I would recommend some wheel spacers to make the rears stick out a little more. I did that with my rims and it gives the maxima a more aggressive stance filling in the fender flares. Anyways, good job on the rest of the car

That "flush mount monitor" is an Eclipse AVN5435. And those "yellow, red and white buttons" are RCA plugs. Auxiliary inputs for the AVN.

Thanks for the comment, appreciate it.
