Does anyone know when mud flaps, like on the Maxima, and a rear molded cargo matt will be available?

[EddNog]

My car came with mud flaps, so I'd think they must be available.

There's a carpeted trunk mat; I'm not sure if they're going to make a molded one from Nissan. Weathertech is selling a molded cargo mat called CargoLiner. It's from MacNeil Automotive.

I noticed mud flaps on ebay. Don't remember the cost as mine came with them. I also ordered cross members for the roof rack from ebay. $124 including shipping. The dealer wanted almost $200 installed.

As did my SL, although looking at the spray pattern from the snow/salt I don't know how much good they are. They seem awfully small,

They came on mine and they don't provide any coverage for the front. Way too small, i get spray up both sides

Everyone is right the flaps are too small. Problem is, the aftermarket items will probably be the same as the OEM. Don't ever remember seeing any measurements listed on the aftermarket items.

Has anyone purchases a Nissan back bumper guard, and installed it themselves? I've got one ordered and I think I'll instal it myself as the warranty is still vaild no matter who installs it. Also, I'd like to order the cross rails for the roof rack (which should have been included as OEM!!).

I think the bumper protector is a must, as I've already got lots of scratches after just a week. Come to think of it, this item should have been OEM too, as many competitors include this from the factory.

Oh, what the manufacturers will do to keep the base model at $19995. Of course those two mentioned items should be standard. But that would bring Nissan's base price all the way up to $20100. What a difference that big "2" makes as the first number in the list price. The rear bumper cover is easy to install. There's a faint arrow that you match up with the center of the hatch latch. Just be sure both the vehicle and the cover are above 60 degrees F. This is important for adhesion with the usual 3M backing.

The base Rogue S in Canada starts at $24,998, you guys in the States should remember how lucky you are!!

Come over here to buy a rogue. You will have to pay taxes by the time that you get to Canada. Just cross the Niagara Falls and you r here. You can save a few thousands.

I know this is may be of little consolation, but Rogues here in Canada get a few options (esp. on lower models) that are only available on top end models in the US... and there are a few that aren't available in the US at all. This explains at least some of the price difference. The FAQ is here:

Just some things on ebay that I have not seen before...

Not sure if it would have an effect on the mirror motor/heater.

Seems to have basic authentication turned on, but if you cancel the page does show. I am not sure how safe this one is as it appears to be the passenger air bag path.
