New shots of the Pearl 5.5

Here's some new pics of the Maxima after a few recent changes. I had the Stillen lip kit installed and painted, had them color match the grill and I lowered it on S-tech's today. I am happy with how the car turned out. Comments welcome .

I like the way it turned out. I would recommend a mesh type grill however, the stock grill is too restrictive in terms of air flow.

One of the cleanest 5.5's I've seen. They should came specially optioned like that in 03. Like a 2003 Nissan Maxima SE-R with 260hp.hmmmmm

Leave your stock grill on. Its looks a lot better than the mesh crap out there.

I had the grille painted white and I like it. I guess everyone has their own opinions but I love the way it looks. I hate mesh type grills as it looks too far off OEM, I like clean looking cars. I plan on getting a set of either 350 track wheels or G35 wheels. Thanks for compliments guys, I love this car.
PS The girl is a girl I have been dating for the past few weeks. No scraping on the S-tech's but I am also used to driving cars much much lower than this. I had an Integra with a carbon fiber lip that pushed my cell phone if I had it in front of the car. In my opinion the maxima has a lot of ground clearance as is.

When I said too restrictive I didn't mean the stock grill would cause your engine to overheat and meltdown.

I'm saying a mesh grill does allow for more airflow which may result in lower engine temps and more flow to the intake.

Just need to clear out the headlights and do something with your bumper lights.

As for the grille man... I like it, just need to add some kind of accent to break it up. IMO. If you've got any questions on how to do that shoot me a pm. I'll send you a pic of my boys set up.

Looks good man. The grille is different so definitely a plus there. Only thing is, I would have painted the front of the grille body color and left the inside of it black. Just my opinion. Girl is hot too!

Hot car & hot girl. You lucky guy! lol

If anything, I would recommend getting 20-25mm spacers in the rear, unless you plan on getting new rims.

Great looking Max!! You have got to love the 5.5 GP Maximas. I sure do. Clear sidemarkers and headlights would add the finishing touches.

Looks really good. I like your grille too. Just needs some rims and it'd be set. I really like the way the yellow fogs look on GP Maximas. Nice work
