Take the orange film off of your headlights? There is none...

And if you mean the blinkers, that's molded orange plastic, not clear with an overlay. You need clear corners.

your front blinkers are called front bumper lenses the stock ones which you have are orange you just need to buy soem aftermarket clear front bumper lenses and in the rear your tail lenses are stock with the orange reflector in it you can just buy some red clears or some altezzas to upgrade your tails lenses here is a Ebay link for Maxima clear items...holla at me...

tailights

1. Heat up taillights in oven, 350 degrees for 10 minutes, keep an eye on em.
2. Remove outer casing slowly.heat will have melter glue
3. Remove orange plastic and replace with clear plastic of your own making (home depot generic light covering plastic)
4. Replace new cleared lenses on tail. If it's done fast enough the glue will just re-attach.

Not unless you leave it in there too long.

Or not long enough..... Mine didn't heat up enough and cracked. Luckily it didn't break too much.

Theres a how to summary for each generation Max. You should find a how to for your front lights there. I found it for my 5th generation and I saw a link for How to's for the 4th generation.
Good luck
