Hey guys, my name is Rob. I previously owned a 94 nissan maxima, not many additions to it though, other than my sound system. It consisted of a 15in elemental designs oldschool 2000w RMS Sub, custom kick panels, a/d/s/ components, an eclipse cd3000 head unit, and two JBL amps, one 4 channel, one single channel for the sub. My 94 max exploded last week due to unknown reasons under the hood lol, car was basically destroyed. I'm probably going to purchase an 01 charcoal GXE maxima tomorrow. The problem with it is that it has these rather ugly alloy rims (the ones that look like hubcaps rather than actual alloys) and it has the plain red back tail lights. I wish to replace my factory alloys with the nicer looking factory alloys that are on most of the maximas ( I would upgrade to nicer rims, but if im putting my old system in the car, i don't want to advertise if you know what i mean, kind of a bad city i'm in. Besides I like the other factory alloys alot) So my questions are, does any body have any idea how much it would cost to replace factory alloys with factory alloys (lol) and what are some good sites for head/tail lights for my car?

thanks guys, if the purchase goes as planned, i'll be posting pictures soon!

Welcome!

There are quite a few options for replacing the tail lights. You could get a tint spray or film for the stock ones or look for a junked SE to steal the blacked tails off. Or check out some of the sponsors and see what they have to offer.

Welcome! There are a couple options for wheels: you can go with stockers, but I've also seen many people go with the 18" g35 wheels. They bolt right up!
