that's a 97-99 grill on a 95-6 front bumper. Did you shave it or something?

The lip was an unfortunate accident almost a year into owning it on the local freeway it met up with a metal pipe and didn't fare too well.

Tom, I dont recall the paint I used on the fog lights, I think it was stain glassed paint. Also, let me know when you have some pics of the headlights installed, I would love to see what they look like on your car.

quite easily the best-looking headlights I've seen on ANY maxima of ANY generation. Nice job Luke...

although you really need to do something about the "hamburger" mount point. Either shave it completely or put the burger back on (blacked out, of course!). The empty backing plate like that ruins what would otherwise be a *perfect* front end...

WOW, I have never seen a 95/96 bumper look so sexy! I think the grill made a huge difference...

Lovin' the pics. I think one thing I like about Lukes car is the fact that he still has a 95-96 bumper. Most owners eventually switch to the 97-99 design. I like the 97-99's but there is somethin about the 95-96's when coupled with an ID lip that just sets it off just right.

Thanks for the comments, I have always liked the 97-99 front bumper but I cant steer away from the aggressiveness of the 95-96 front end.

Haha, the mazda in the back is my brothers. I did his black out headlights and his drop so I hope it looks good. I plan to do another photoshoot with clean cars so the pics will be that much better.
