Hey all. First and foremost, thanks to all of you for making my transition into this forum as smooth as possible. Loving this car in terms of power and drive. It's so smooth! For a truck it sure is zippy! I found myself doing 70 in a 50 and did not realize til my GPS started beeping :yesnod .

So, I would like to request some assistance on a couple things.

1) Can someone photoshop or if there exists on this forum, a merlot pathfinder with black (preferably stock) wheels, post a picture? I'm considering plasti-dipping my wheels and plasti-dipping the front lower bumper (GTR style, not the whole bumper)--as you can see previous owner had a couple bumper rubs. Or should I just grab a touch up pen and dab in those spots?
Getting my tire replaced.

edit:
I tried my hand at it... this is roughly the look I'm looking for, what do you guys think? :gotme

2) I don't know why I never noticed this, but it appears the plastic piece next to my driver side foglight is missing. Where can I get one of these? I'm guessing junkyard is the first answer right?

3) Anyone selling or parting out their Pathy? I bought my Pathy and it was missing the plastic piece that goes over the rear of the roofrack.

4) I noticed today in the carwash that in the dryer (high power heater portion) my sunroof spoiler was flapping at the mouth. Is this normal? I'm guessing since the fans they use are very high it caused the flapping--however, I drove up to about 80 today with the windows halfway down, didn't hear any flapping. Should I be concerned about a missing? adhesive?

5) Anyone got a black or gray cargo privacy cover for the trunk?
Thanks in advance!

You need this part for the missing piece next to your fog light.

As for your roof thing, not sure, I never found anything about roof racks on Courtesy Parts.

Where are you located? I know of a fantastic Nissan/Infiniti used parts source here in Canada. If it's not too far away from where you are I'd say they're definitely worth contacting for pieces like these

NYC, U.S. lol.

How much for the parts? The stealership quoted 40$ + tax for the fog cover thing. I'm waiting for a callback on the roof rack part. 40$ is insane for a piece of plastic I can live without. I would pay 40$ for both things, MAYBE.

It would definitely be cheaper, but once you add on shipping and border taxes it probably wouldn't be worth it. I'd definitely go check out your local Junkyard first. I had my clock go out a few months back, and a new one with my discount was still $160CAN. Called the used parts place and got one for $40. If you ever end up needing a bigger part, it might end up being worth your while. Here's a link anyway: http://www.useableused.com/

ive had that foglight plastic thing stolen twice. I'm trying to think of a way to secure it better, maybe with a bolt or glue before i buy another one. :mad:

Lol. I've actually considered doing a driveby on someone's PF. It seems a lot of people around here have Pathys. Haha, I'd feel too guilty.
