Check out my OLD/NEW front bumper

Hey guys... its been a while since i have posted any updated pics of my Max... but i GOTTA post my new front bumper... I have always love the clean look on any car... but i also sometimes like the more aggresive stuff......when it came too my front bumper i wanted both... and i didnt want a aftermarket bumper... cuz 99% of the front bumpers for a 4th Gen max i dont like (Nothing personal if you got one) i also want to go with a strong front bumper


OLD STOCK OEM bumper with Stillen lip




Old bumper being made new...





The final work



Let me know... wha you think?

***NOTE THIS PICS ARE FROM MY CELL, IT DOESNT DO THE PAINT ANY JUSTICE***
I want with Nissan GTR gun metal (getting a real paint code was such a *****!!).. but i got it... and i added just the little purple pearl to mix...

IN THE SHADE



IN THE SUN.. cloudy tho


Notice the little bit of purple in paint... but is still the GTR gun metal on rare bumper


Inside the Shop... again notice just a touch of purple by the rear door and back window area...


I thought the Bronze rims didn't flow... but i painted the orginal GTR gun metal but made the mix a little flatter....



I will be bring my Nikon next time im around my car for way better pics...

You can,
Here are the guidelines....
- This is open to all generations to members that are in good standing..(no banned members)
- ONE post per member, per 3 month cycle...i don't want to see one person posting 50 cars they see on the forum and say they want to pick them so choose wisely.
- Please if you're going to pick someone's car other than yours, please make sure you have their permission.- Please DO NOT post any additional comments this thread is STRICTLY for MOTM cars/nominations. I don't want to see someone post their car and have 20 people make comments on it.
- If we don't pick your car this month we might pick it the next month so don't be discourage.
- NO EBAY pics/cars. I'm going to let this roll on a trial basis...if you guys are posting pimp my ride car pics or something stupid on ebay then this is gone. Don't ruin it for the rest of the community!!!

Very original maxima. I agree with you, I don't like any of the aftermarket bumpers for 4th gens either. Looking good so far

Looks great. I like the front bumper idea a lot, as I have have contemplated doing this exact very thing for years. Cool to see the idea come to fruition.

HAWT

The only thing I would have done differently would have been to extend the sides of the opening, or pull them in rather. like make the opening shape more towards the fins of the intercooler

EDIT: Just chopped what I was talking about. I didnt like it at all.

Car is a dime piece

Nissan was reallly gay with letting someone know the GTR paint codes... so i went to Oakville Nissan and lied ... i told the front desk chick i worked at a bodyshop and needed the paint code.... which she replied wha is the VIN of the GTR your fixing.. cause tha was the only way she could tell me... soo since i was f*cked... i just flirted with her... and then finally she told me that they had a gun metal GTR in the service area... long story short KAD is the gun metal code... us it wisely! LOL
