Just posting some of the pics i have of the car, nothing much to really say, it isn't too flashy, but i like it that way I will do updates with everything that is done to the car,including new exhaust in the near future

 

Love the SE! And it actually looks really good in white, and I'm not a fan of white cars. They let you do limo tint in Maryland? Lucky

 

Good start.

 

Well, not quite 35% is the legal limit here, but the cops are fairly lenient since where i live is pretty much the middle of nowhere. Nothing but farms and back roads here, with one major highway (I70) that is about a 20 minute drive away So the tint really isnt a problem haha

Thank you, but i still have a LOONG way to go before i get the car to look, sound, and feel how i want it to

 

Just take your time. Save and do it the right way as well.

 

Blue LED Door courtesy and Dome lights. Gauges, map light, license plate, and trunk lights will be done next

(They wash out everything, so it is hard to get a good picture of them,sorry)

 

nice start, 28 mpg's for highway. man i'm getting 23 at best, i guess my 276K motor is showing its age :/. i need an over haul

 

Ouch, im not even going to ask what your city mileage is

 

Fully Debadged Trunk

 

well thats with 90% highway and 10% street, all street is like 18 mpgs :/

 

18mpg street/city?! yall must be driving like ****

 

I get about 19/20 doing mainly city driving. Remember, this is a maxima, not your Integra, Phatboi.

 

Im just starting to keep track of actual MPG, im going to fill up today and see what happens. I wouldn't really call the driving around here city or highway, so this could be interesting haha

 

you forget i owned a maxima, worse i ever got in my maxima period, city or highway, was 22 mpg. that's when i first got it w/ no maintenance

 

You use 92/93 octane Premium unleaded yes? How long since your fuel filter was changed? If more than 30K, change it now. That'll help the mpgs.

 

i know that question wasnt directed to me, but i never changed my fuel filter nor my air filter since i had the car, the only things i never touched. i'd take the air filter out and knock it out, but never changed it

 

Thinking about painting the white part of the grill black so that it blends in, you know the part where its like a white bar horizontal across and meets the Nissan emblem in the middle?? Any thoughts on this would be appriciated. Also thinking about getting a back lip kit

before you PAINT it, try this stuff called Plasti-Dip. It goes on like spraypaint, but if you don't like it you can peel it off relatively easily. I got mine from Ace Hardware, locally to me (Seattle). Check around, hardware stores sometimes carry it.

edit: of those two above, I personally like the top ones (all clear). If you want to go darker, you can buy this stuff called niteshades and smoke the clears a little bit.

 

Since you have the dark tint, I would go with black bumper lights. Might as well get the smoked clear tails too

I actually have an ACE hardware within walking distance, might go check it out About how much does it cost??

 

I think it was like 8 bucks for a can

It lasts awhile, too. I've sprayed 4 splash guards, and 5 wiper arms, 3 coats each, and I've got a LOT left in the first can

 

i'd say stick w/ the amber, either find a fresher, clearer amber and find some cefiro headlights

 

Blacked out the corners, i think they look better then clears, and they create a good contrast to the white body

 

Black mirrors

 

Shameless plug of my car...........


JK JK, OP your grill may look good painted like this

 

Ha what's up dude, I'm in frederick as well. Where you at? I'm in Middletown

 

I live in Mt. Airy/Westminster area, about a 30min drive from Frederick. I put Frederick because it was the closest big(ish) city around haha

 

Not gunna lie, i used your car as an inspiration for how i wanted mine to look

I like how it looks, but i was questioning whether or not to do the white columns on the inside of each headlight beside the grill

 

You could always try some plastidip on the middlebar of the grill. I originally painted the grill all black (car is a GLE so the oe grill was chrome > ]

I did the vertical bars in white last year, wanted something more than the solid black grill

 

Sounds like a project for tomorrow after the wash and wax

 

Werd, that's not too far. We should meet up sometime, I could help in modifications too

 

Got wash and wax done just as the sun rose this morning, i LOVE the color contrast in this

 

Sounds good But i really dont have much money for anything right now haha, but when i do ill hit you up

 

the legal is 35% idk about frederick MD but closer in the city they can and sometimes will get **** n have you take em off immediately...

 

 

So i'm guessing that you live in maryland too??

 

Yes Laurel MD
