Looks fine, what other styles are there available for the Versa? I prefer the clear bra since it has a better coverage on the front end. I think that it's more for looks. I'll look for some others...

I know versa maddness has a hood deflector, but he had that specially ordered from a Canada Nissan dealer. I'm not sure, but I should get one too.

Oh, I looked all over online for the Versa and could only find that one you saw on JCwhitney. Man, I wish Nissan had more factory accessories for the V, they seem to shaft us.

I got mine from a dealer in Ontario and only paid $69.99 for it and it fits perfectly and was super easy to install.

I got mine through Beaverton (Oregon) Nissan (866-419-5555).

The part came from Canada (for some reason it is a Nissan of Canada part only and not sold thru US dealers), is called FormFit, and took several weeks to get. I spoke to and ordered it from Bruce in Parts. Cost $126 delivered from Canada to Bruce and then to me in Nashville, TN. I believe the part was $80. Well worth it.

Hey,

I bought a deflector from the dealership (Nissan). It cost under $90 Canadian with taxes. I installed it at home with my dad. It didn't take long to install and looks pretty good. Here is a pic!Enjoy!

They look great, adds a bit of style to the front end. I think the clear bra serves a better purpose, but with a price.

Off topic, are those wheelcovers on an SL?!?! Where are the OEM rims?

I have winter tires and steel rims. I liked the looks of black rims however the wife didn't so I popped on some cheap hub caps.

The factory alloy's with the beloved conti's are sitting in the garage all ready to be installed. Can't wait for spring.

The only reason why I put the hood deflector on was to save the nose of the car from some rock dings. Around here they don't put sand on the roads they put gravel.I'm surprised that the windshield hasn't been dinged yet. I hope I didn't jinx it.

The deflector adds a little different look with some functionality. Different strokes for different folks.
