First off, i would definitely not tint the headlights, my personal opinion is to not tint the tail lights either… Window tint is a good idea though! I would look into covering the roof with a black vinyl overlay. I would also lower the car before adding wheels, but once again thats personal opinion!!

Good luck, and happy modding. Welcome to the forums as well!!!!

You have tons of options available many of which depends on your budget and preferences. You can look into doing many of the following: lowering springs/coilovers, wings, body kits, aftermarket exhaust/muffler, air intake, wheels, additional lighting, et cetera. Take some time to conduct several google searches of different aftermarket accessories available for the Altima coupe and go from there.

First off, Welcome!!!
I have a silver coupe and i have done some minor mods to it. Ill attach a older post of mine and you can see what a silver coupe looks like with tinted windows and tails. However just so you know, i no longer have tinted tails. and My headlights and fogs are now 6000k instead of 8000k

So far I have exhaust,intake, coilovers, tinted tailights and tinted windows. Cost me around $1500. I saved because I did all work myself. If u can do it urself it's definitely worth it. Otherwise I would of payed over 2g's for that stuff

It depends on where you're from but tints usually are in the $120 - $200 range.

Lowering springs are about $250ish for a decent set. I'd recommend getting drop shock for them too in the near future. Twilight tint is about $11 for thé spray stuff. Or you do it right it will look real nice. And it's super easy to. You need help pm me I can explain it better
