About Build

We’ve been honored to follow Dom’s Fast and Furious project since the beginning on our my4thgen Facebook group. Dom would post daily updates and even inquire with the community for any questions and/or feedback. Dom is just a cool dude all-around and that makes his builds much more respected. It was an awesome project that turned out great in the short time span of just 21 months. This was also great for the Nissan Maxima community to continue to inspire and motivate others on their own builds/projects.

Dom has already replicated two other cars from “The Fast and the Furious” (Brian’s Mitsubishi Eclipse and Jesse’s Volkswagen Jetta). The 99′ Maxima was built according to the movie’s specs (except for a few minor details) with the help of Craig Lieberman, who owned the original movie car. Dom Dub creates these vehicles by working in collaboration with Craig Lieberman, the technical director for the first three movies of the franchise.

Now on to the build!
