97 Max: 'Clear'ing some things up

Hola fellow .org-ers!

Just got a maxima as my first car and just did a few things to it. Being a 16 year old student, I don't have the biggest budget, so im starting off with a few small things. Hopefully i'll be able to get a drop later on in the year.

Clear Corners


I got some led bulbs for the corner lights, not sure if I like em yet since I dont have HID's they dont quite match my headlights too well.

*sorry for the blurry pic* night time with p & s camera ftl

clear tails




and last but not least, Rep'n the .org!


Thanks for looking! Comments and Criticism welcomed!

I kind of want to do a bit of everything! I just want a car that looks nice, and performs when I need it to. I'll prolly look around for a cai. Don't really know much engine-wise, like where i should start. Thanks for the tip on the plastic X, i'll go pick some up this weekend!

get the maintenance done first, its expensive but worth it, then do the mods once u know the car is in good order.

imagine having mods on a car that sputters at idle cause its plugs are old, or the fuel filter is getting clogged, or imagine springing a gasket leak because u did not replace a 5 dollar PCV valve and it got clogged.

just my 2 cents.

Great start! Sage Mist is one of my favorite colors; there's one around here like yours with some dark tint and a drop, soooo nice.

Weird, that IS my car! check it out. Although I have some more done to it, still looks the same from the outside. Remove the pinstripe it'll look better that way.

On the ramps...




My .org repping

Like the led's. Where'd you get them? I can't seem to find any white ones that are actually white. They all look blue.

Potentially the stock ones? Either way they shouldn't be that hard to find.

Also sorry for the thread jack! haha

I got my LED's from pepboys. The corner bulbs were about $10 a piece, and the sidemarkers were 2 for $10.
