    Lower your car its by far the best visual mod! I look at factory photos and wonder why i didn't do it sooner.
    The front wheel gap is so bad on these cars
    Yeah, it is really really bad. I dont see why they didnt design the front fender to cover more of the tire? It makes no sense to leave a such an ugly gap.

    So do you scrape the exhaust/underbody at all? I know our subframes are pretty low to begin with.

    Since day one Ive wanted to lower mine. Ive just been afraid to try it out.

    It scrapes on speed bumps due to my custom y-pipe being so low.
    other then that everything clears. Have had no problems what so ever, and roads are really bad around here.
    Do you have any mods?

    Re: Detail/Photoshoot Altima SER

    I dont have any mods. I do have magnaflow stainless steel 4-inch tips though! Haha, makes it looks slick. The 250hp VQ is plenty quick for me.

    I would love to do some mods though, Im thinking I could make it sound a little nastier by doing a resonator delete. I saw a vid of a guy who posted vids of his stock, resonator delete, and straight pipes and it sounded pretty good. Just a little raspier.

    It is my daily driver though and my only car so I dunno. Also we have dumb restrictions here in cali. I was at one point going to get a nismo CAI but I flaked out of the deal once I heard about our carb restrictions.

    But damn do I want to lower the thing! You can see the gap in my avatar. I was parked on a slope so it made it less noticeable. On a flat road its a bit higher.

    Your Altima looks gorgeous and I really like the composition of the photos.


    Many of the shots show depth and thought. The last photo on an angle adds an interesting perspective and I tell people all the time...Tilt the camera for a nice affect...

    I could never live there due to that. Every car I have wouldn't pass. Texas We dont have Emissions testing or a very strict inspection. Good thing because my Altima is Heavily Modded

    Yes, I am same user name.
    My car is actually on the home page right now for NOTM (Nissan of the month) thats the reason for this Detail/Photoshoot
