One of our members, Eddnog has done the a 'full chrome' treatment to his Rogue. The only part that is not chrome/stainless steel is the side mirror frame/mount and fog light surrounds... they are painted silver IIRC.

Have a look, you may like it:

The window frame makes the car higher quality. I will go for it. But the weakest part is still the rear .... So far I couldn't find a transparent back light cover like Lexus SUV series for my Rogue

Read the thread regarding 'blacking out whole car':

zer...e-car

Leo2005 had his rear taillights tinted with film. Looks very slick IMHO. There are also spray finishes that can be applied to do the same effect.

Humm.. The tinted taillight is not what I want. I prefer this effect.

There is a Genuine Nissan Accessory spoiler available from the dealer:



It comes pre-painted so you can order one in the color of your vehicle, or 'Wicked Black' if you like that look. It's attached via 6 bolts... a template is provided to drill the holes in the hatch. Cost is around $250 USD.

I think he is talking about the light housings, not the spoiler.

The Rogue rear lights have a red cover, not a transparent one. It is tinted in the cover, so you cannot remove it.I think you will have to wait a few years to maybe see an clear aftermarket one.

Sorry.

Oh, clear corners/clear tailights? Haven't seen those yet. Pescakl1 is probably right... you won't see something like that for awhile if at all.

Not sure where darkmanx got his chrome mirror covers but you can get them in quite a few places

I was going to direct you to slickcar but kcfm beat me to it. Heres another supplier slightly cheaper:http://www.customstreetdesigns...7.htm

You can also find Rogue chrome mirror covers on eBay. just search this stores link for ROGUE:

This bar would look a lot better if it would cover at least both ends or even better the whole bar. Right now it looks no more than just universal accessory that this guy sells for Nissan rogue. I asked him about 2 weeks ago if he has a better looking bar and he replied that this is all he got. Here's an example of bar that I'm talking about comes from Nissan on new altima. It doesn't cover the whole bar but at least it doesn't look like universal accessory.

Yep... I couldn't help think... as this thread goes off in the direction of adding chrome and more chrome... other threads in this forum are dedicated to debadging and removing all traces of chrome.

If I had to guess I would say it might be an age thing. The younger folks prefer no chrome while the older folks can't get enough. Hmmm... that might make for an interesting poll.

Personally I'm holding out for a US company to come out with these slick little pieces of bumper chrome like JDMRyde has on his Rogue.Guess that makes me one of the older dudes.

I think you may be on to something here.. when i was younger, i had a full blackout kit for my Mustang GT.. wanted it as stealth as possible (except for the rims).Now, stuff like that really doesn't matter to me.
