Rear Muffler Protection
Hi Thinspirits,
Don't worry about that black plastic cover at the back, it's doing nothing, it was put there to "supposedly" protect the muffler, but it's not protecting it well, because it doesn't offer any protection from under the muffler. This is the most vulnerable point which gets dented quite often. Especially in off-road conditions.
This plastic cover gets removed by nissan if you decide to fit a tow-bar and I've got this cover sitting in my garage doing nothing after fitting a tow-bar on mine.
I wouldn't spend money on buying this cover and in fact I removed it myself even before fitting the tow-bar to expose the shiny muffler (after I polished it of course) it looks much nicer without it.
If you still want to keep it, am sure nissan would give it to you for free, as they would have plenty of them in their garages, which have been taken-off other xtrails with tow-bars.
