Looks pretty good. Actually helps me see how it would sit on my stock 18's if I drop it. I really thought it would sit a little lower tho. What size tires does the Limited have?

Nice simple and clean... If you get the Stillen lip then it will look mean and agressive. BTW your lucky your state doesn't require front plates.

Nice drop but IMO I was never a fan of the "murder" look... Any color needs a contrast/offset to make it look good.

I would get a custom grill.. or do something unique with a factory grill.. I'm not a fan of the factory grill in the least bit... Someone on here with a burgundy max did a custom grill and it looks good

The car looks great, tmo. I agree that a little contrast is nice and would've kept the emblem chrome. I believe jbling007 did the diy custom grill mod and I agree, it looks sweet. A mod worth considering.

Swap out the rear amber turn signals for led or a chrome bulb that blinks either amber or red. Cleans up the rear end beautifully.

Also not a fan of the blacked out emblems, but oh well…

Looks clean..I would recommend getting a Stillen front lip. If you black out the badges, you should black out everything so it makes sense. If not, leave the badges chrome.

I am in the making of making a new signature, but when I do..You'll see my car is "Murdered Out" - So, I did a mixture of Silver & Black - 2 Tone..So it looks clean & catchy.

All 1 color..is just yikes!

The car looks good. I agree with the other guys about some contrast.

How is the ride on the Eibach's? I have the same car, but in white. I've been thinking about lowering, but wanted some reviews on how the ride is with the eibachs before I do.

Looks good maybe it'll sit a little bit lower once it settles. How'd you do the trim pieces is it plastidipped?

Yes I plasti dipped it all. I am thinking about wrapping it for long term. How long did it take for everyone's drop to settle out.

My Eibach springs settled in 2 days. I think driving makes them settle faster but didn't settle much. Needs MOAR LOW...I think in the future, you should paint your chrome trims your car color (handles and chrome above the license plate). For the window trim, make it into black gloss vinyl and for the grill, gloss black.

I had the dealership add leather to mine. Honestly i think it's better than the factory leather. It's Katskin leather.

Jbling, your right. I wish it was lower but don't want to add coil overs until after my warranty runs out. The leather cost me $1000. But the one thing I like about it is that it is softer than the Nissan leather.

wow i didnt think a leather install was possible.... only 1K is pretty good thats one upgrade that brought your car value up for resale. now only if there was a good way to get rid of the two tone interior.. the headliner etc.

i am new member to the forum, i just bought my very first nissan and it was the 2012 limited edition maxima! and i totally love my nissan i would not trade it in for the world. I am in delaware and interested in joining a local club and meeting other max owners out there and see what i can really do to this car! i have been reading and it seems that everyone goes suspension first on the max....why is that, the car is a little squirrley when you punch it and you have to drive it....i have burried the speedometer! i want to put on new exhust and intake and filter what else can i do to get this thing close to the big horsepower numbers i know this tuner should be able to do! any help and knowledge is greatly appreciated.

2012 limited edition- missing alot of bells and whistles! no freaking usb port do you believe it? i went cloth interior and no nav since my phone is as large as the nav screne....and will more than likely go dvd monitor in the dash anyways.

all in all 1-10 and 10 being the best i rate this car as a solid 7! there needs to be more bells and whistles.
