Does anybody know if license bar from 08 altima either sedan or coupe would fit rogue? I measured them both and altima has a little longer one but still probably could fit. I need to order a new one and I wonder if I could fit the one from altima with chrome bar on it. I'm talking about the one that number 7:

Hi Leo, Well... my first suggestion would have been go to a dealership and measure the length of the "area" above the license plate where trim is applied on both an Altima Coupe and Sedan... however it appears you already did that. If I had to error on the length, shorter would be better than too long.

I've seen the aftermarket sites advertising this piece of chrome trim stating it was for the Rogue but don't care for the fitment. It looks like it was made for another vehicle and just being sold as a Rogue accessory. I've included some pictures. As you can see with the Altima pics (both Sedan and Coupe) the trim fills the ENTIRE cutout area... whereas the Rogue trim seems to small. I was hoping by now someone would have released an aftermarket chrome plated ABS plastic trim piece that would fill the entire recessed area.

I bought the chrome sheet from rvinyl and applied on it. The cost of the sheet was $5 + shipping. After installation I found that one of my chrome handle got air line in the middle so I guess I'll have to order a spare set.
