Default Rear End Transformation Complete!

Ok, it may look like a few z's already out there, but I like this look! You cant really see it but both emblems are black pearl from courtesynissan.com.





What do ya think?

The wiper is very easy to remove. The tough part is finding a way to fill the hole. A lot of people use a sink-hole plug (from Home Depot) painted to match.

Was on the edge of tinting my reverse lights, but this made my mind up! Looks great...

Get rid of those mudflaps! It took me sometime to get use to not having them, but it looks so much better from the back...shorty antenna too!

I used a different plug to fill my wiper hole. It looks the best IMO. Here is the thread:

Check wiperdelete.com....he has color matched metal plugs and he has both flush and top mounted plugs it was quick and easy the only hard part of the install is removing the rear squirter just because there is no room but its well worth it

That looks very nice!

+123 on the wiper delete. It will compliment the rear soo much. What antenna did you go with?
