So I wake up this morning and...

I decide I feel like doin a mod or two. So, I hit up my boy Luke's website. Checkin out the DIYs on his site. Hmm, I've got a white Max...will AE mod look good? Conveniently... d_warner did the write and his maxima HAPPENS to be white.


So...here are pics




Then I was thinking...now I should prove myself to happyricefob....and did 1 rice mod of painting some engine caps.



wowsers...




AE mod came out A LOT cleaner than I thought. I'm gona do the corner lamps one day...they're kinda hard to separate.

I need to do mine.

Do your headlights fit flush? The first two pics don't look like it. Has front end been repainted?

Was your car ever in an accident? I am asking because you do not have an OEM grille and you are missing fogs with the gxe/gle bumper.

Also what kind of drop do you have?

Looks good Bijan. Now you gotta get the clear turns, get rid of the pinstripe, and do the AE work on your corner lamps. After that, your car will look just ducky!

There is no black circle behind the Nissan emblem to provide a contrast.
