hello. recently i had to give up buying a 2,200 dollar 1993 white nissan maxima SE (with PLUSH package) with 111k miles for a 1,300 dollar 1990 gold (bleh) maxima GXE with 188k miles.

Now, i hate gold and i hate seeing any 3rd generation maxima without a spoiler. Im dissapointed about the mileage difference and the overall difference in features and looks, but hell this GXE is in damn fine shape and i want to give it the look the nissan deserves.

Now other then adding a spoiler and eventually painting it white or black, i want to add a pair of foglights and... Do this. I'm not sure if these are new light lenses or what, perhaps you can tell me what kind of a job this is and where i need to go to get what i need to do it.

Basically, i want to change my headlights to look like this. rather then the dull, everday looking headlights that really just dont do a fine car like the maxima any good.

wow, thanks. Didn't know this was so popular.

Do you know of any sites or other sources in which to get these specific headlights?

I got mine at the junk yard...because I wanted them really bad. Goto bimmer sites, really cheap, maybe even glass lens' and projectors and what not. Ebay... OEM suppliers... that'll cost you a pretty penny. Best bet is prolly Ebay, but you need to be careful, headlights on there are the cheapest POS' evAr. (personal expierence with my GF's car )

and its VERY popular with the 3rd gen maximas, hell ford taurus' (2nd gens I think) are looking into this mod from us
