Looks good. Other than the bumper, your paint looks awesome, too. My suggestions: body color door handles and grill

Hey kid, do you have a problem with PR ??? If you do, come here and say all that bull to my face, Daddy's little girl. And about your car, anyone can buy things off of "my daddy's credit card" and then say: " my car have the most mods...bla bla ...".
You can say all you want by internet, but I know you are a Daddy's little girl that his dad bought him his first car on his "sweet 16".jajaja

I talked to a friend of mine and he said that this car have 2 of them so I wouldn't have emissions problems, but I'll get sure of that. Thanks for the comment. And correct me if I'm wrong about the 2 catalytic converters.

If you have the oem y-pipe then you have pre-cats in that. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe those are only used when the car is warming up.

Thanks; When you do it make sure not to use epoxi, Advance auto parts know nothing about emblems and I pay the consecuences for using it, it was a disaster with it drying out, luckily I measured everything and everything was put in the right place. So, use something less potent.

looks good I would suggest factory fog lights lower it and get the bumper repainted.

Paint looks good. Headlights look great.

I'd put the Nissan hamburger back where it was stock ....if you like emblems.

Personally, I'd lose the emblems.

Well, they fit good, but, they left a little gap, other than that I don't regret it.
I had the stocks and I coudn't see the road so, it was basically by need that i bought them and (I love the black JDM lights).
I suggest to apply a lot of cylicone on the unions of headlights and bumperlights so water don't fog the lights. But I only had that problem once on a carwash. Don't worry, they are easy to install and looks much better than the stock ones.

The emblems problem was that, I bought them by ebay and the "GUY" who sold them to me gave me the 2000 "MAXIMA" emblem, I was so pissed off, but i was like, ohh well what the heck, but now I regret it. I'm thinking about getting the carbon fiber trunk lid. And if I do, I will not put any emblems.
