Rear infill panel.... where to get one??

[terra88]

Hey guys,

I want to take that huge arse rear bumper off and need to source a DX infill panel. I have seen a few homemade ones from checker plate but not overly keen on the look.

I did read somewhere that D21 panels are the same but I can't find any of those either, or any DX tubs to take the panel off...

Any ideas???

nissan 4x4 wreckers in williamstown vic.
They will have one and they will freight aus wide, tell them your from the forum.

that or i believe tjm and arb sell their own versions that don't look too bad...

Try southern 4x4 also as they're closing down and might get 1 for the right price

Check these guys out - http://www.andysautosport.com/nissan/2001_2004_frontier/exterior/roll_pans/pirana/ they have 2 different brands that do them, and pretty sure they will sit nice and plush into the gap. Cant imagine shipping would be too much

Im thinking of getting one of the steel ones in the future to tidy the back up and remove the step. much the same as this one on the hilux, it gets welded in and colour matched

The TJM one looks pretty good, it comes black I think but fits the gap well.

I got mine from gary at nizzbits. Bought stainless steel button head screws for it from the bolt shop and had it sprayed to match. After spraying and buying, it still wasn't cheap though. cant remember exactly how much now.

Yeah thats what I want to do... Is that body lifted as well?

Na, if your thinking that because the tow bar hangs lower, thats because its the str one, made for the rear step in mind. The DX tow bar sets up higher. I kinda like the StR one as it protects the spare tyre a bit. But in saying that i dragged the end of it along the ground last trip, so i might replace it with a DX one, one day.

Do you remember what size and thread those screws were mate, I not long got my panel and was hoping to get it sprayed and on in the next week or so.

I got mine from nizzbits also, it was cheaper to get it from Garry and freight it to WA than it was to buy one locally.

Cant remember off the top of my head mate. Will run the thread gauge over them and get back to you.

What kind of coin was Garry asking?

The infill panel was about $50 and I got two rubber bumper pieces for $7 each, in hind sight I wouldn't bother with the rubber pieces and won't be putting them on. It cost more to freight it to WA than it did to buy the panel, even so all up it came to about half what the WA dealers were chasing.

Do you have a part number?

For others looking at this option the D21 panel does fit the D22 tub, i have one on my 2006 ST-R.
