Need a new paintjob because my front bumper, hood, and front fenders are all nicked and chipped up from road debris.

dont amber the parkings! in my opinion it looks rediculous, instead to the brighter-corner conversion.

not feeling the wheels very much, but the rest looks very nice and clean, shaved emblems, red/clears, and exhaust.

nice, but how does the stereo sound?

and GT-R badges give you 20 extra hp and better traction in the snow...but they also bend your tailpipe

Stereo sounds like Bose!! But to Chris and everyone else, the reason why I have the GTR badge on is because it has a REAL GTR motor in it, it just looks like the stock VQ!!

Thanks for everyone's compliments!! Yes, the GTR badge will go, just got to get around to taking it off and replacing it with a blacked out Nissan badge.

No matter how old the car is, I think the Maxima is still one of the best looking cars on the road. Perfect blend of sportiness and luxury. I plan on keeping the car till the wheels fall off!

Personally, I like how the GT-R badging. But I guess it's whatever is yoru personal choice in that.

I'm definitely feeling those wheels, though... but that's because I'm SOOO anti 5-spoke, it ain't funny!

Car looks great, put on the stock emblem. Car looks fantastic, a paint job will be your worst mistake ever. You'll take a $2000 hit on re-sale value alone right away as well as the cost of the actual paint job. No matter how someone might hype up a certain body shop or how good a car that has been re-painted may look from far away, every shop I've ever come across does crappy work. Always wavy, blurry, horrible true quality, not even close to an original paint finish with a few chips.

I see you pass my firehouse every now and then.

I'm the old school firehouse across the street from Blockbuster.
