Opinion on my maxima
**as you can see i already made a lot of changes to my car. New pictures at the bottom**
I ordered a new primed bumper for my 2002 and im not sure if I should paint it the color of the car or just leave it un painted.
Im thinking it might look good un painted with the silver, but im not really sure. Any opinions?

did you do the red stripe? And yes paint to match OR I have seen a few people paint the bumpers (front and rear) and the lower door (kinda 2 tone) Some look good. Others... Just remember its your car, OUR opinions don't count. Do what makes you happy! and don't listen to george___

100% paint it.200 % take the pin stripes off and the sticker. If u wanna do it ur self go to a auto body supply and they'll put ur paint in a can for 30 bucks. And only dip ur rims if ur gonna post a pic. I wanna see if it looks good was thinking of doing that.

I have used the body shop paint that comes in a can, and it matched pretty well. All I can say is take your time and be patient, it can run fairly easy.
Also, I was told by the body shop owner that this paint basically had clear coat in it so there was no need for it.

take it to a goddamn shop. there's no way any rattle can or home done first time paint job ever turns out right. trust me, you need adhesive so the paint sticks to the plastic, base and clear. plus, you need a room to dry the paint and bake it on. you'll thank me later ps, remove the fugly *** pin-stripe

Im taking off the red pinstripes soon. I think red rims would be too obnoxious, plus the inside of my car is blue.
Ive decided Im definitely painting the bumper, but I dont wanna put too much money into the car because i plan on selling it soon. Plus i need to replace the evap system because my engine light is on and my inspection is overdue....whooops.

just sell it as is, you obviously don't care for or want the car. the more you make it the way you want it, the less sell able it's going to be. repainting the bumper and returning the car to stock look will help with that.

Nice now ur rims match ur.............tints? Black side markers? Tinted tail lights?........I guess they match ur wiper arms. That color dont look rite on any car or rim. Take that **** off or add some metallic to it to make the rims look more black chrome.

I love the way it looks.
Notice the side view mirror, rear side marker, and gas cap.
Though, i dont know if im really feeling the gas cap. Im still thinking about that
