ok, all done, I smoked the tail lights and break light, added the spoiler, krom bumper, and exhaust tip, and debaged, the only thing left to do is paint the muffler with a high heat black paint because the pipe and bottom of the muffler is visable, other than that, I'm happy with how it turned out!

Looks great!
Did you have a shop tint the tail lights with a spray? Or did you have a shop tint them via film?

I had a body shop paint them with a clear coat with a smidge of black mixed in to give it a smoked look

Thanks for posting the photo. A few comments:

- I like the use of mandrel bent tubing.
- The tip protrudes very far out from the bumper. There appears to be room to set it back farther to look more like the OEM:

yeah, the muffler shop set the tips out about an inch or so more than I wanted, and I thought I would leave it like that to see if I liked it, but I may take it back and have them move it back a few inches

I actually think it looks better sticking out a bit. Even on my Rogue it sticks out and is not even with the bumper. Moreover, it looks more performance-oriented which is what the Krom is suppose to be leaning towards I presume. Also, seeing the silver of the exhaust compliments the wheels and the Black vehicle. :bigthumb:

I just called www.nissanpartswarehouse.com for a quote on a '11 Krom rear bumper. I got a quote of $528.91 (H5022-1A41H). Unfortunately the operator said the shipping is quite high for an oversized shipment. Approx. $180 shipping. Ouch. It sounds like I should just buy at the dealer. I work for a Car Rental company so I get a discount making it $591.81. But the operator say there may be extra parts needed for the replacement. Is that true?

Your part no. is wrong. It should read 85022-1A41H

The only 'extra' parts I can think of is the hardware. Ie. bolts and plastic fasteners. If you break/lose any they are readily available from the dealer.

Does anyone know if the Nissan Dualis and Rogue have the same Frame. Looks like the JDM version of the Rogue.
Looks more aggressive IMO

The Dualis (Japan), Qashqai (Europe) and Rogue are all basically the same vehicle. Each has slightly different styling, features, and engines.

Has any one else recently done this conversion? I'm buying my parents a 2010 Nissan Rogue SL in white .. and I just saw this video on YouTube of the Rogue KROM edition and I fell in love

So I have done my back bumper and redid my exhaust to a 2.5" and deleted the resonator and added a dual Megan muffler.
