Anyhow I'm interested. Coincidentally I can no longer find the smoked corners on Custom Maxima anymore. I wanted to compare the prices b/c I thought the front smoked corners I was looking @ we listed below your asking price.
I'll PM you if I can't find the smoked corners on CM.

Let me know what you can find. I just checked custom maxima and it's still on their site. Look under "Lighting" I believe. Just hit me up and I'll see what I can do.

I used VHT Nightshade, also did the rear ball & bar and spioler mounted stoplight. Did the fog's but will probably take it off.

Ya I am strongly considering buying the clears and tint shading them, it looks good.

i suggest tinting the stock ones like i did. because they are stock they still reflect/light up the proper colors

I think the stock amber looks especially good with charcoal color cars.. but what ever.. if you must smoke them don't go putting blue bulbs in there..

Anyone have the "Safe Instructions"for installing new corners. I'd hate to chip the paint. I'm going to search but figured I post the question b4 hand.

So I went ahead and bought Deckedout's smoked corners. Like everyone said darker cars = smoked corners. Looks pretty sick IMO and the install was effortless. Anyhow I elected to go with a clear light instead of the amber. I'll make the switch if I get a ticket. I'm waiting for some HID Fog replacements. Should arrive this week. I'll post some picks once I get those. Very sick though - thanks for the hookup Deckedout!

Depending on who you askhttp://forums.maxima.org/showthread.php?t=495308
custom maxima dot com is a pretty good site for stuff like that. I think they had the smoked corners for $49. If you're lucky you'll find someone here selling theirs.

if you had actually read this whole thread, you would see that they dont have them anymore. you would have also seen that you can smoke your own like i did
