Oh the curb rash...LOL...YEAH! The car came like that and thats the worst rim.(one of the reasons I got them to shave 5k off the price) The spoiler is far from done, it MAY be finished on Saturday. These pics do no real justice as far as aesthetics, plus the spoiler needs to be sanded some more and painted. Those are just some teaser pics. Oh its a Wings West 3rd gen spoiler I took off my old max!!

The subs in the picture have since been blown. I accidentally bought dual 4 ohms subs and hooked them up @ 1ohm anyway and fried em. The new ones are black and look cooler -and dual 2 like I need! Just fyi -you dont need a huge box for these subs to get low.
Im painting the spoiler today and will post pics asap.

That spoiler doesn't seem to flow at all. Lip spoiler would be much nicer looking. Rest of the car looks great.

The wind deflector on the sunroof seems to mess up the smooth lines of the car, everything else looks nice. Good job overall

Downforce upgrade is apparent in the handling, believe it or not.
Thanks for the replies, I know some like it some dont. I also felt the sunroof spoiler was too high but the color makes up for it. Its almost the color of the car. Much darker than the window deflectors. Oh well. on to the intake!!

Yeah I feel ya...Look at your car in your sig. I cant say I like anything except your location, BUT, I feel its more important to let you think what you want. and save your worthless opinion for your threads cause we all cant have "flava". Why must you post to say you dont like it. If you dont like it...dont waste energy posting, just move on to the next thread. I respesct your opinion tho and also your right to have no taste.
whatever, hatewithnotaste if u wanna.

Taste is a matter of opinion, and I shared mine. This is Maxima.org, don't post your stuff here and expect not to have negative criticism, regardless of whether or not you asked for it. Sure, I can be an ass at times, but it's more in good fun than anything. I don't care what you think of my car, I know it's a POS, and I'm sure you don't care what I think about your car.

I don't like any of the visual mods you've done to your car, plain and simple. I think they are distasteful. That is my opnion. Have a good day

Nice max.. congrats...
The wing, I find it mimicks the G35 style wing.. ( is that the look you were trying to go for?)

btw, the billet grills, what if you were to paint them black??

Congrats again...

The wing was a lucky shot for me. It was on my 3rd gen but I didnt like the way it looked so I just stored it until I was bored one day and put it on the 6th gen. It the Wings West 3rd gen one. The G35 wings dont have any feet on them though. This one does so it raises it up from the trunk lid.
I was thinking about painting the billet grilles yesterday, but I dont know just yet. But maybe.

Also I put in a switch with a small purple led on the console so I can see if they're on or not from inside..
Inside the trunk and behind fold down rear seats also have purple glow.
I'll take better pics one day these are with my phone so 'scuse the blur.

Damn that blue shiits gotta go, looks good otherwise. The grill isn't all that great either. Also the rims and stickers on the door are not my taste at all, but if you like it m

Chrome Grill, front plate, Side decals, rain deflector on windows,=

Rims are Ok but very basic would have been better with 20"s that would be perfect would fill it up nice even 19"s will work.

The rear wing I have to ask you it's like your car has a split personality. IMO I feel if your going bling go bling Speed go speed. I see some people try and mix it together and most of the time it ruins the whole car at the end.
The wing is ok but throws off the look a little along with the grill and rim choice.

I like what you did too the headlights nice little touch and if your not scared of the cops get the tints a little darker.

I think it might be cause I'm non-white. Either that or the pics really suck. Ive been hated on since the car was stock.... What to do today to the haters? <<<HATER
Wrong way to go....

I've had my share of bling'd out cars first car Cadillac on 19"s chrome Tv's all. Second car 4thgen max I first started to blinging it out 18"s chrome but it just doesn't look right on a max it's more sportier than bling. Last car was a caprice on 22" spokes Tv's and all I get the Bling side from my older brothers but I'm a race fan by heart. So I know where your coming from but like I say to everyone trying to do up there car. Please don't rush into mods and ricy do dads from pep boys. I know your excited and all about the new ride but Slow and steady wins always. Save your money and do it right the first time.
From a 1-10 it's a 4 because it looks lost. Chrome wheels, wing, blacked out headlights, decals, then a chrome grill. I guess it may be a new trend who knows.

If you decide to go bigger on the rims. I'm the man that can get you a set for a reasonable price shipped to your door.
