2nd Mr.Dave... if you would of checked my exhaust thread, you would of read that I have put a muffler (Magnaflow) on.
But, why is it that when I post on other people's threads the subject always turns towards my ride?? Don't need that much attention!! Thanks!
For some of you guys the definition of "ricey" is anything that's not a plain simple Max... that's hilarious!!
Come on guys!! Keep making me laugh... I love it!!

Torgus, sick ride dude...I dont think the rear window shade looks entirely bad. But the visors do need to go. Car would look even better if you dropped it just a bit more, just a tad bit more
Post some pics with the new rims though

Outside too overly done, car must not be fast. should have put your money in performance parts instead.

why would i waste money on making a fwd car fast doc? i mean you tried doing this once why don't you explain why i would want to do that...
i'm not the person who invested a bunch to tc my maxima and gained only 40hp and then sold it the next week
my car is for show. not go. i'll be the 1st to say that and the first to make fun of anyone who thinks a 4door fwd sedan is a good car to try and make go 'fast'
also i'm not going to drop 6k+ to do a custom turbo which is my only option...unless i went with a rmt of course then i'm looking at around 3k all said and done. but even then i have a stupid autotragik and don't want to spend 3k on a turbo and then 3k on a 6speed(+ flywheel mm etc.) swap 2 months later after i blow apart my tranny. again dropping 6k into an 03 is just a bad move financially for me. i'd rather buy a boat which is my next project i'm done with cars atm i own 2 and both are reliable and have their own special places in my heart, also i can drive these cars for the next 10 years and be fine. well...i hope
anywho thank you all again for the compliments!

NEW PICS!
Got some 20'' ADR Sterlings today! Always been a fan of these rims!
and obviously i have still NOT washed my car. i think i'm going to have it professionally detailed(outside) and then borrow my brother in law who does professional photography for some real classy pics. i'd throw in some HDR ones as well...with those pics i'll be sending them to susper street and a few other magazines to try and get some coverage and maybe a sponsor or something...*crosses fingers*
Obviously they are dirty as hell. I'm going to polish them tomorrow. Also they need new center caps which are already on the way!

they look small to me...anybody else?
oh and i tuck in the rear which is sexy...
Again my car is fo sho not go. So i don't need people saying i should do performance mods. no offence. a turbo means a huge investment in money and a huge drop in reliability. All other performance mods will not do much to make my car considerably faster if i do do anything it will be a BBK so i can stop this beast...speaking of which!
One big difference i notice was acceleration is slightly slower but braking SUCKS. i was amazed how much heavier these are compaired to my 19'' Konigs.
My gf thinks my old rims fit my car better i can't decide...thoughts?
One thing i have to say is having a lip on your rims is dead sexy!
And again thank you all for your comments. I fully understand many may not like the way i have modified this maxima. But keep the comments comming!

I like your car for the most part, but I think it would look a LOT better without the Stillen touring lip. Of course I'm more partial to the classic lip because I own it 
. Even though I'm not a fan of chrome rims, I think they look pretty good on your car, probably a little better than your other wheels. I'm also not a fan of the rear window spoiler...it's just a little too much with all the other stuff. Very unique overall though - good job.

Apparently nowadays mentioning that a maxima is a fwd family sedan is a blanket argument for whatever point you're trying to make.

i'd rather make it look 'cool' to me. if it looks fast to you then i'm sorry that wasn't the intention
you must not know what a fast car looks like. when you see a tricked out civic or accord do you think they are fast or 'look' fast? no. so why would you think my car is???Can you pick a worse type of car to make into a 'racer' ??? a 4door fwd sedan is about the worst you can get afaik...add to the fact that i can't add forced induction to my 3.5 via a premade kit it's rather hard/expensive to make it go fast. and then it's not reliable anymore. and even then it's only fast in a straight line. whoop dee do.
if i wanted a fun track/road racer i'd get a 240 and drop in my friends extra RB26DETT sitting in his garage. 2 doors, light, rwd...not a heavy 4 door fwd sedan with a weak gearbox...and i may do this next year as the engine is promised to me if i want it...
i drive my max because i like to drive around in comfort and style. i'm sorry if somehow you've been convinced on here maximas are super awesomely fast and the best car at everything. what they do they do well. a VERY few have made them go fast in a straight line. Even fewer have made them fast on an autox course.
i love my 2 maximas. i'v owned a bunch. but i'm not a fanboy.

Don't mind my delusions of grandeur, looks like you've got more than enough of your own to worry about.

I love the rims, but def think the old ones go better on your max! I've never been a big fan of window spoilers, but that's just me, window visors and sunroof visor def a no go, take away from the car, other than that I like the max man and don't really see anything ricey about it, you have you're own style and that's what's up, so appreciate the haters and good work love!
