What do I think? I think the girl is cute. Hook me up.

Love the color of your car. Wouldn't want to clean your wheels regularly though.

Looks good.

My opinion though would to be either lose the black/clear tails and put 00 SE tails on, or replace the third LED brake light with a clear one.

I did the black/clear tails and replaced the third brake light with a clear one, looks good

your exactly right..

i've been having this knocking under neath the car... and it turns out that the exhaust is smacking against the car and when i looked underneath, the exhaust has somehow been pushed up.. not by me.. its always been like that...

i'm getting new intake to exhaust tip in january so that problem will be fixed

hahaha.. oh believe me.. i'm used to it...She's actually an import model.. these pics dont do her justice at all.. it was like like 40 something degrees out and so it had to be quick..

she models alot for my s2000 when we go to car shows and hot import nights so this happens all the time

not my cup of tea in terms of the chromed out grille and lower grill .. IMHO it takes away from the car and if you painted it to match body color it woulda looked sick..

but just my opinion and i love the rest of the looks..

Nice car! Just not a fan of the upper grill, I like the lower one though. I dunno why but it seems that the grills are always kind of awkward for our cars. I just have two quick questions, whats your suspension set-up? And what kinda of rain guards are those? Mine bulge out from the car more than I'd like....

Not like a pro, detailing has been my only source of income more than 15 years now.

Tomorrow I have an E46 330 coupe with the 10 spoke M wheels to clean. 10 friggin' spokes with a 1/4" slot in between each spoke. Ugh.

I definitely give you credit for having an photographic eye. While the first series of indoor photos are awkwardly lit, those outdoor/evening photos are excellent. I particularly like the way you positioned the car on the sidewalk at an angle to the building... very creative. I'd like to see you do some outdoor/daytime photos, just to see what you'd come up with.

I think you've had some practice taking pictures of cars, eh?

On to your Maxima... I actually love the rims. They're quite elegant on the Maxima; nice choice. The front and rear lips look great; even though I'm not a "lip" guy. (Hmm, that reads weird.) I even like your custom grills and taillights; again, even though I normally hate that stuff. And yet, it looks real good to me in these photos.

I don't care at all for all the wind deflectors, none of them; but particularly the one on the hood. It's just too much flimsy, exterior plastic, and cheapens the car, IMO.

One last thing, MidN1te... if you're going to be in the picture, then SMILE! You've got every reason to, man. So serious.

Good job.

~john

Thanks for the comments and compliments folks

The side rain guards are Weathertech and aren't the double sided tape kind.. it actually sticks into the door frame.

I'm having mixed feelings about the sun roof guard and the hood bug guard...

the Upper grill was what i had before.. what happened was my old oem was gonna back on and i painted it black. well it didnt dry so a new one is on its way and its gonna be painted OEM majestic to match the car i put that upper grill so i didnt have a hole hahaha

The maxima is my DD and my s2000 is my toy

i have roughly 113k on her now.

I was trying to go with the dark smoked out look with the side markers and taillights. i wouldve kept the rear lights if i bought the non smoked out side markers though

I'm planning on taking off the front grill and putting the painted oem one on, taking off the sun roof guard and bug grill and keeping the rest and see how much cleaner it is...

think that's a good i dea?

I do like the lower grille alot though..

OH and the serious look... Dood i'm the over laughter this side of the mississippi....i have NO clue what happened... all the other pics were of me laughing and smiling... but my photographer happened to choose this one cuz the Wifey looked better or something other...more pics though!

OH and thanks for the compliment on the photography...i have a few photographers that like to take pics of my cars for calenders and stuff and my friend is very new to this and wanted to try and asked if he could. so this is HIS work...not bad for his first time with cars. as for me? i could barely hold a camera straight lol

The rain guards are weathertech.. very sleek... and i'm on the Tien Htechs with stock shocks... i used to have the Stechs on my old maxima.. looked sick but rode like doodoo..

Irish actually convinced me to go with Htechs and said they would be perfect for my daily driving and looks.. he was right
