Here are some new pics. It was about 300 degrees outside. You can tell by the pictures the humidity outside affecting the camera. ANyways, check em out.

 

Fitment is on point. Needs to be lower. What sides are those? They're sexy.

 

Thanx bro. Im going lower as soon as my coilvoer kit/camber comes in the mail, plus i still need to roll the fenders. As far as the sides i will have to find the website for you.

 

Clean, but your front end clashes a lot with the rest of the car. SE tails would look a lot cleaner on there as well.

 

yea i know. i bouught the car with the tail lights/ grille. i want to replace the tails. not sure which direction i want to go yet. im still backwars on my color options as far as paint. i really like the 370 blue. or matte black?

 

I get down with pearl white all day. Just slam that ish and toss the grille.

 

Lovin it...

 

Side skirts = Extreme Dimensions Evo5s.

I was thinking of ordering a pair for myself in light of the fact that the J-Dubs don't exist anymore.

 

nothing needs to be changed..MAYBE lower, but this is a nice max as is...only mod...cooler weather lol

 

....... aww.... aww, idk im kinda on the edge with this one... i guess its o.k to me... what size wheel and tires on this??? wheel width is there, ride height and tire size seem a lil bit too much for my taste

 

i normally dont like big chrome wheels on a max, but i actually love this look. but yeah, something about the front wheel/tire just seems a little too big, the rear is fine. i think it would look hott with a smaller wheel in the front. maybe one inch smaller...just to rake the stance a lil more u know.

 

Wow that is staggering

I would trade rims with you in a heartbeat!

 

there is so much wrong with whats going on with this car im not going to point out all of the irregularities

 

those are 20in wheels 20x10 in the rear, 20 x 8.5 in the front. looks good, i personally do not like the side skirts. front grille, tail lights, black lip. everything else is verry nice

 

wheel size reminds me of the past

 

car looks clean. front lip painted and 02-03 taillights would complete it.

 

I'd say 02-03 front end conversion with a front lip color matched, and it would be all set. Car looks really good already though.

 

Looks well done to me. Im not a fan of chrome wheels either but this looks pretty good.

 

OK. The car came with the grille lol. i have never seen that grille in my life. I honestly like the stock one alot better. As far as the kit. what are the options. slim to none when it come to simplicity. i dont want a riced out whip. i want everything to FLOW. Stillen front lip (match) stillen rear lip (match) stillen side skirts ( tooo narrow). Kits for maxima's are bulky and some are way to extreme. i just want something simple and smooth. And the tail lights. Does it even matter which kind u have? We have the ugliest tail lights for a maxima. The design is horrible. you just have to "work with them" Just my thoughts.
I ahve been in search of the "Anniversary Edition Kit" and they cant even find it at the dealership

 

minus the rims and riced taillights it looks alright

 

love the kit just need to paint the front lip to match. and with the chrome wheels and the car being white the 02-03 taillights flow well.

 

What eactly do the 02-03 tail lights look like? They are the ones with the black housing right? and is the 02-03 front bumpuer a little more "sharper" than the 00'?

 

i want to see the difference between the 02 front end.

 

those are the 02-03/5.5 gen maxima front ends..i have a love hate relationship with my 00-01/5th gen front end..with a color matched stillen lip and slammed..the 5th gen front end wins...but that 5.5 always offers more of something that cant be described in words.

the 02-03 tails are the factory altezza tails, which i advise against

 

Lookin' Good

 

i dont think its the size rim, i think it could use some more slammage and tire stretching in the front... that'll do it

 

Agreed! i had a set of Tein basic coilovers on my tl, but after a while those thousand dollar springs started loosin stiffness. Im not sure which setup to go with. and hell yea im going to chill on my tires right now until i find a --Nice-- set of tires to spend some good bread on.

 

i like the side skirts but it doesnt flow with the rear lip, and like most have mentioned paint the front lip to match the car...

 

wheels look good

 

That is HOT!!!

 

with the black lip I think it would look better to have kept the OEM grill and painted it black....your ride is hot and the wheel fitment is ill

 

i LOVE these side skirts Front bumper isnt bad either



But i REALLY like this front bumper



As far as the rear... hmm.. stillen is ok, but i want to find something more sharp. its a little too round for me.
Anyone have this rear bumper?

 

The first looks like the Jdubb kit. Its nice.

As far as the second bumper goes, I've only seen one maxima pull that off and actually look good. The rest just look garbage with that one.

I dont know what rear bumper that is, but it looks like crap IMO.

In my opinion, just get the stillen front and sides with the AE replica rear.

 

that first kit....sex, have always loved that kit/max...the other kit...wayyyyy too much...but if you can pull it off..mad props. i mean there are alot of cookie cut maximas just like civics, so i give props where do when done correctly.

 

That first bumper and sides setup looks pretty nice. It's clean, I like it. That second one is absolutely hideous, please do not put that disgusting thing on your car. In my opinion the setup with that lip and sides you have now looks just fine, why change what's working? However, I saw you mentioned the AE lip kit. Can't go wrong with that. It is hard to find, but if you have patience you will be rewarded. If you feel that you absolutely have to change your current setup the AE kit is the way to go, even if you have to buy it in pieces over time.

The rims are a little big for my tastes but they're not bad. I say just get rid of the rice tail lights and get around to painting your lip at some point and it'll be solid.

Don't over-think mods to your car. I see you mentioned previously about painting it. I don't see a reason to. Pearl white is one of the best colors on a Maxima. If you start going overboard thinking you need flashy metallic colors and big body kits you're going to end up driving around an ugly, riced out Maxima before you know it.

In summary, change your grille to stock, change your tails to stock, paint your lip to match and lower the car a little bit more and you'll be set. The car already looks pretty good save for those few hiccups.

 

Heres a comparo of my old 02 vs my old 00.


You can see the differences in the bumper. Overall i like your car as well, just not the minor things that oyu pointed out already such as grille and tails. Thumbs up on the pearl white tho.

 

Please don't do the Stillen front bumper. It doesn't match your cars clean looks.

 

oh ok ok! that is Much more aggresive! i love the grille too!

 

Im not sure why the tial lights i have are considered "rice" either? Black housing wit clear lens?

The only difference between these two is ONE clear lens. And thats rice? Hmm

 

Anyone on here know Nax? He will be doing most of the work on my car. if you have seen his old maxima, it was VIP style and looked damn guud.
