nice and clean. be prepared to get on your "to do list". most people will not feel you on that. kinda seems like you got 2 different looks in mind (bling bling & stealth), i would choose one or the other.

Clean so far...fix that rusty left rear 1/4 panel and lets see some shots of the front and the rear. And you'll blow the GR2's within a few months on Maxspeeds most likely. They are OE replacements.

Rusty 1/4 panel? its not rusty

front end of my car sucks(rock chips is all over the lower bumper area like my max has the chicken pots)

^^^ I just threw up in my mouth...

Your original paint color would look so much better than candy.

gr2s wont bow on maxspeeds. i ran that combo for a while (still on the car but i haven't driven it in years).

i would say, for that look, stick with untinted lights and switch to gxe/gle window trim (chrome pillars would look funny without it). the factory color will set off the chrome better than a bright metallic color. candy or stock imo.

Hmm...then maybe its a scrape or dent....or maybe just overexposure in the pic

And for some funny reason I was thinking Maxspeeds were Sprint (2" drop). My bad.

I would just like to support those who say that 20's on a 4th gen maxima doesn't work. They just don't fit the lines of the car, and are neither functional nor attractive.

I think 18's could work nicely.

the trim kind of clips on there, and theres a couple bolts. you can find all chrome handles on ebay.

if you are going to respray the car, that would be the best time to add the stuff. adding it before your paint is on point will make it look ghetto. if you're gonna go for bling, do it right. and yes, stock = factory.

Clean, I think you should consider 18"s instead of 20"s.

If your paint is oxidized then take your car in for a full exterior detail, it will cost you less and look much better than getting it repainted some flashy color.

It looks better now then it ever will with 20s, that is just too damn big and it will look like a cartoon car.

DP0 (dark green) is a great color and you should stick with it. It looks great right now; the sunlight really brings out the color of the car. There aren't enough DP0s as it is, please don't repaint yours.

everybody says how 20 is too big but i say, and always have, its just an inch. i could find MANY sets of 20s that would APPEAR smaller than all of the mm/moda 19" clones out there. there have been a few over the years that have pulled off 20s cleanly.

on top of that, everybody isn't looking for a clean look. some people want to be flashy (ie 22s). i don't care for it, but thats them...

People running 19s are pushing it IMO, the tires are already rubber bands when you're running 19s and when you're going to 20s you can't compensate for the extra wheel by taking away rubber, so the rolling diameter increases. Yes it is just an extra inch but that extra tire diameter really does a lot to the look of the car.

I have not seen a 4th gen that has pulled off 20s, but this could also be because 1) most popular/attractive 4th gen wheels aren't offered as 20s, and 2) most people going for dubs on A32s are just after bling and go for completely tasteless chromed up boat anchors.

Yes people can do whatever they want to their cars but that won't stop me from trying to talk some sense into them. I am glad the OP is considering sticking with deep evergreen.
