I like the "before" better. I think your side skirts are on backwards

i did the opposite u did. honestly that was the worst thing u could have done. and yes ur side skirts are on backwards. but its all a matter of preference. u should have gotten the red/smoked tails. thats just my opinion

If you really want to stick w/ the Altezza Route, complete the look by getting rid of the chrome in the tails, either color match em or red them out. You'll get less heat from here if you do it that way. No matter what though, as long as you're happy w/ the car that's what ultimately matters, not what a bunch of characters on a computer screen says.

I don't mind the altezza's but I agree with aackshun.

The majority of Maximas have the red/clear setup. They all start looking like each other unless you do LED boards in the red/clear setup. lol after having the LED altezzas on my car for 3 years, I think its time to move on. I wouldn't say they look "ghetto". They work on some cars and don't work on others. On OP's car, they don't look bad at all because of the color of the car along with that rear bumper.

Looks good! Those tail light match your car nicely.

On a otherwise stock car it would look odd and would not fit in with the car. But it flows pretty nicely on your car.

in this case, i prefer the stillen kit, and the OEM tail lights, IMO, those LED lights only look good at night. i had 'em but paint them black.

I actually like that bumper, just not the tails maybe if the chrome was blacked out it would change my opinion. but like previously stated I would get the bumper repainted. all in all looks good and I love that color...now i'm wishing my car was blue instead of black...

Paint the tail lights black. Leave the led ring and everything inside it as it is. Just paint the outside portion black. Would look much better and give it a more custom look.
