this question is for nismo2010. the tein coilovers u have on ur ride is a direct fit? i understand the kit is actually for a 2007 altima and up. did u have to modify any thing on the maxima when installing? i have a 2011 maxima and looking for a coilover kit for my car. i'm just concern about problems with the fitment. any problems u have with the tein kit? is their any camber adjustment on the tein kit? if not do u have any camber issues at all? let me know please. thanks man. oh by the way how or where did u change the orange lens in ur head light? i like the clear lens.

Thanks for the compliments guys!! Definitely need some spacers..I just been lazy looking for a set.
emisu - The coilovers are a direct fit. You have to reuse the stock strut mounts though, un like bc, d2, megan and etc. These dont have any camber adjustments, but the other coilovers I just mentioned does. I know I have camber issues. I installed an eibach camber kit in the front which helped. I have yet to get aligned. So I won't know where I stand till I get that done. To obtain getting the clear lens, all you have to do is change that orange bulb. I have the LED switchback bulbs. Something like this:

I hope I answered your question.

Looks amazing. nice and clean and thoughtful. Interesting you found out the altima tiens are a direct fit, what made you try it?
as a follow up to emisu's question, If i had to guess you did a couple other things to your head light to get it as it shows correct?
Looks like you maybe painted the them and possibly removed the orange reflector?

Indeed I did crack open the headlights and painted them, color matched the projector housing to match my car, vinyl wrapped that orange reflector with 3m carbon fiber vinyl, swapped the lens with TSX lens, and of course did the blue demon eyes.
Actually the headlights were done by my brother and I.
