Well.....I don't really like altezzas, think they sort of cheap, but hey thats just my opinion I won't force it upon you, but they are quite a few altezzas haters here that will

But if I was made to chose, and you and you seem to really want an opinion I would go with number 1 or 2, but leaning more towards number 2.

But I and a lot of other people will probably tell you, just clear out your tailights, its cheaper and makes the car look so much cleaner and sharper. Heck the saved money could leave you with some money to do some more useful cometic or performance mods, just my 2 cents, hapy modding buddy.

Ummm... how about none I thought they looked wierd before but they look really off on your red max. Maybe it's the photoshop. If I had to choose, I'd say #1 or do the painted skyline style. I don't hate them, just my 2 cents. ( Your just asking for altezza flames to follow however LOL)

Re: ::::altezzas::: You Choose

I would go with #2 with your color. I too think Red/Clears would look best with Red paint, but it's your ride. Funny thing about these Altezza haters is the '02 Max pretty much comes with them stock. BTW, I think #3 would look good on Superblack.

I am not sure if its the photoshop but the altezzas don't look right for your car. May be after you get them you could paint them to match the car color.

If you want it to stand out, then do the skyline tails. At least its a Nissan thing.

Re: ::::altezzas::: You Choose

Don't do it, man. I regularly see two Max's driving around my area with those things. They are eye catching, they catch your eye and you LYAO at how foolish they look. My opinion, of course. Go with clear/clears and spend your money on something else for show - like 18 or 20" wheels.
