Some small changes from last time, and you can actually tell the hood is CF this time. Enjoy. Comments/criticism welcome.
Very well put together! 
Good Job!

KCMC582, your car is sick. Honestly I don't think you should replace your door handles. It looks good like that.
By the way, where did you get those eyelids? I remember I was looking for them at the same time as you were if I'm not mistaken.

thanks for all the compliments guys, really. i love how the car looks and its nice to see that other people think it looks good too.
as far as lowering it more, i agree, it needs to come down 3/4 -1", but realistically, it cant happen. like Mac said, i wouldnt be able to drive anywhere. when i pull into my parents driveway now, i already clear by less than a 1/4", so i cant go lower unless i use bags and lower it when parked.
the spoiler has been a constant question that i had been asking myself, and im being VERY picky about it. first of all it needs to be in CF, and second it needs to not ruin the lines of the car, because IMO it looks pretty sleek without the spoiler. ive been contemplating and browsing, so there may be a thread to follow this one, haha.

damn.....your max = TEH SEX.....what other mods do you have planned, you say you are "basically" done? Have you considered a CF rear lip spolier....it will probably look sleeker than the SE spoiler IMO.

Chrome handles I could live without. The M3 style spoiler is definately a good idea. Other than that, it looks bad azzzzzz. Applying a glossy clat of black paint to your calipers would look nice. Keep up the great work!

Looks great, Casey. IMO, the drop is fine and the spoilerless look is great. The only thing I'd change is the chrome door handles and maybe smoke the front emblem a little.

Well being that your car is by far my favorite on the org it’s really hard to even come up with anything but complements. I think the ride height is perfect, any lower would look odd. I do think it would look great with an OEM spoiler however.
At this point it’s just nitpicking the little things
But I think the eyelids mess up the lines of the car being they start before the hood line. I did like the clear sides better then the smoked, but you cant please everyone I guess. Still by far my favorite Maxima.

Awesome car...While I think it looks fine without a spoiler...The only reason I would say to get the stock one (or one with a light) is that you could have the spoiler brake light and then you could re-tint your back window so that there isn't the square cutout for the brake light in your rear window...Drop is awesome I wouldn't touch it...I liked the clear sidemarkers, but I think they look just as good as they are now. Very nice looking.

Thanks Kruppa. I am considering a SMALL lip spoiler in CF to cover up a blemish there that is bothering me. As far as the handles go, its proving to be a lot of work to even locate a cheap set of handles, and i like how they match the polished lip of the wheels.
I also wanted to post my cardomain link. I just made it, it shows my max from when i bought it in 8.02 til 2 weeks ago when i took the most recent pics, for anyone who is interested. Thanks evereyone for their compliments, im going thru a lot of sad stuff right now, and everyone praising my car actually does put a smile on my face.
