Hello all! I picked up a 2010 Frontier in January. I have three kids so the CC was a must and I liked the long bed so a SE CC LB 4X4 fit the bill. I actually found one with a sunroof as well. I liked the looks of the LE's and PRO-4X models but the price difference was rather large and I can stand the looks of the roof racks for some reason, I like trucks simple and clean.

Most useful stock bed available:

Since then I have changed all interior lights, marker and license plate lights to LED's. Headlight bulbs were switched to Phillips Extreme bulbs.

The SE's don't come stock with foglights but you can get it as a dealer installed option. I just bought them myself and saved a few bucks (thanks thenismoshop.com!). The kit they sell comes with the OEM blinker stalk that has the foglight switch on it, plug and play, looks very clean with no aftermarket switches.

I then debadged the tailgate, removing the "FRONTIER" and "SE 4X4" emblems, looks cleaner.

Tint on the front windows came next (50%, keeping it legal) with a 20% strip on the windshield.

Then one night I was scanning Craiglist and a guy had a set of LE rims off a 2010 for sale for $800. They only had 10 miles on them, I offered him $500 cash he accepted. The 18" darker rims look much better than the 16" stock chrome rims, which I'll probabley run in the winter.

I then bought a SuperChips Cortex tuner and put it on a 93 performance tune, bumped the timing up 3 degrees, bumped the idle up 50 rpms and removed the wide open throttle restrictor. Outstanding bang for the buck.
