So my car was vanadalized about a month back. I ended up doing a full repaint and finally got my car back today. There are still some flaws and will be going back to get some spots fixed, but overall a good job.


SuperBlack (KH3)

-Shaved antenna-added OEM VW roof antenna
-completely debaged rear
-SE grille conversion
-door handles painted body color

Color not as attractive as my last one, but this would hopefully prevent from another vandalism from occuring. I went with a suttle, sleek look.

 

 

paint job looks absolutely fantastic, im sure the pics dont do it justice either

 

thats a really nice paintjob, gotta very nice looking max..

 

looking good, how did your max get vandalized?

 

man that looks sick. how much it cost you? you got the whole car repainted? and they wet sanded it and buffed it out? love it. i am in the process of getting my max repainted and the idea of shaving the antenna came up also. how did you hook up the vw antenna? any insight would be helpfull. thanks man.

 

^^^ i wanna kno too

 

looks fantastic!

the subtle touches really bring it together. door handles, antenna, grill ect. very nice.

 

looks so clean...how much?? i loved the blue though..

 

Looks really looks good. Nice and clean.

 

Looks really good! Hope you won't have anymore troubles with the car

P.S. How much was the paint job if not a secret

 

woooooooooot for KH3 Superblack!!


best color IMO

 

what type of kit is that? mille miglia 18x8 rims? SWEET!

 

Thank you guys.

My original color was custom Neptune blue. My car was keyed like it was nobody's business. I decided to go KH3 so i wouldn't stand out for anyone else to mess w/my ride...although I admit I do miss the neptune blue.

The VW antenna was mounted to the roof. A hole was cut in the roof under the antenna and wire is run through the car and hooked up to the back of my headunit. I believe its a regular coaxial cable. I have yet to run the wire but will be doing so this weekend.

The car went through the normal process of being painted, wet sanded, etc etc. The paint job was done by a nearby local shop; they only worked nights since they worked for Infinity during the day (their bodyshop.) The paint job cost me 2000. Wasn't a bad job whatsoever.

 

DUDE MAN!!!!

Your car looked hot in that Neptune Blue, and it looks hot in black aswell....

 

Quoc looks amazing. Cant wait to see it at the meet on the 22nd. Have fun with the new looking car.

 

"The paint job cost me 2000."

I wish I could get the same paint job in NYC. Any pic of the vandalism?

 

your car looks sick!

 

looks really clean. where did you get the antenna from and how much was it?

 

The car looks great, but couldn't you find a better place to take pictures of it?

 

hey man the car looks sick. What infiniti dealership those guys work at during the day? cause I work at Infiniti of West Chester detailing and I know some of the body shop guys own their own shops too.

 

I love your max... What kinda springs you runnin?

 

SWEET. There is nothing like a smooth black Max. A bit_h to keep it clean.

 

wow... that thing looks amazing. I plan on painting my max in a month or so. I loved the neptune blue but the KH3 looks amazing.

Im defiently going to be shaving my antenna like you did. Where did you get ahold of that VW antenna. Make the car look a lot more sleek. What kind of camera did you use to take these pictures.

 

I love your max... What kinda springs you runnin?

 

i think the black looks better than the blue bro. very sexy and elegant

 

Car looks really good man

 

Black is nice. Make sure you always wash your car by hand. Commercial car washes ruin black paint.

 

Your car is beautiful. It looks awesome.

 

very nice, so didt they do the door jambs, trunk and engine bay in the black too?

also i like the look of the painted door handles but chrome around the windows, points for originality.

if i could describe your car in one word i think itd be- classy. its not over the top, nothing tacky; just a nice and clean maxy

 

looks awesome Nismotic
i miss the Neptune Blue tho - I love that color

 

look sick man ... gotta love a new paint job. i've been wanting to get a new paint job, just need time for the $$... woot for the color.

 

I miss your Neptune Blue, everytime I saw you sig it was sexy, many of us have Black or Onxy Black but you among a few with the Neptune Blue plus Stillen Kit on 18s.

Still looks gerogous in the Black. You were vadalized cause your car was Blue I dont understand that part.

 

hey i just realized you took the maxima emblem off the trunk put that back on!

 

The car looks great Nismotic... very clean set-up and very sleek look....

 

Thanks a lot guys. I woke up this morning and went to check on my car. It seems that it was welcomed with a handful of bird ****. You guys are right. It doesn't seem easy taking car of a black car.There was a light coat of dust covering my entire car.

I've been looking for the VW antenna for a while, and found one on ebay. Its the OEM mount and antenna, and I bought a shorter add on antenna to screw into the base. I actually got the idea from Max4Speed and have to give credit to him. I won it for 35 shipped.

The camera I used to take those pictures is the sony dscp-71. I have it for sale in the forum for 115 shipped.

I am running on Progress/AGX(r)/Tokico blues(f). Its a nice setup and im looking to go with illuminas sometime in the future. For those who are looking for a spring/strut combo, Progress has a very good drop and is a step away from the H&R's in comfort. paired with illuminas and it would be a perfect combo.

I felt the Neptune Blue caught a lot of eyes and that may have played a part of my car being keyed. no pics of it though.

I actually like the location that I picked. It was on the way home and i decided to swing by for a few snaps.


The shaved emblem look is growing on me

I will definitely miss the neptune blue. thanks for the comments all.

 

Nice car Nismotic, I'm loving it.
You might want to consider an AE mod to your headlights

 

if by suttle sleek look you mean - freaking sweet then u accomplished it.. black maximas with evos are by far my fav even tho there have been a few around the org i still love em

the antenna adds a nice touch but one question why not shave the keyhole for the trunk too after all that work

 

I have a trunk camera installed in the keyhole. I had the outer ring painted black to flush with the trunk. Otherwise, i would have shaved that too.

 

Lookin good man, hopefully get to see it when I get back to PA.

And, you have convinced me to get mine painted
