Just wondering if anyone here knows on a part or product that will protect the rear bumper for when the dogs are jumping in and out??

Like a rubber strip or stainless steel??

I don't want thier claws scratching the crap out of the bumper..

if you turn over the spare wheel cover im sure it has a mat attatched to it that comes out and covers the bumper

Really? I'll have to check that out...so many gadgets and handy little ideas in the stagea, its no wonder we all love them so much

Yeah I have seen pictures of it and have used it myself. The pictures I saw were people with skiing equipment, and it was so that they could sit in the back and take off thier boots and stuff and not get the carpet in the back all wet and dirty.

I have used it when I've been marching through mud and want a place to sit down and clean off a bit without getting mud all over the place.

It is also really easy to clean, a quick hose down is all it requires.

There are two small straps that normally keep it from being removed tottally, but you dont need to turn it upside down to use the splash guard, it's held to the bottome of it with little clips, so just lift, unclip and fold out over rear bumper.

i'm looking at getting my rear bumper repainted as i've already damaged it loading and unloading. i've seen taxi's with a protective strip over the bumper under the tailgate to stop the paint being damaged. i'm trying to source a clear hard vinyl strip or something similar to stick over the rear bumper just below the tailgate.

Nothing on the nissan dealers system with that part number (rockingham nissan)...

I'm going to check out some companies that might take a mould and create me one.

Would like to know the price of a nissan one also to compare.

It would have never been sold in Australia b4, thats why it wouldn't be on the system. They would need to contact Nissan in Japan.

Nope....

R33's never been sold in Australia, but a few dealerships in VIC have a full parts list. And NISSAN Australia, storage have heaps of new import Nissan parts. I dare say you will need to wait 2 weeks for this part to come from Japan :).

Just need to find a dealership that is willing to chase up the part.

PS: i purchased a NEW pair of R33 front indicators from a NISSAN dealership and they were cheaper than a second hand pair from a well known Sydney import wrecker ;). They also had them in stock at the distribution centre: Ordered them at 8am and picked them up at 3:30pm, that same day :)

    • interestingly enough, i found out the answer is yes. doing a flush did fix my recurring A/T light. it might have been because of the trans filter: but that doesn't really make sense to me. the fluid/filter was super dirty. would that increase the pressure in the lines and trigger an A/T light? does the car even have a way of detecting that? i have no idea. i've done 200+ miles after the flush and no A/T light. if my A/B solenoids went bad, i would think the light would've come on. shifts and drives way better now though...at 2k rpm instead of 2500...no hesitation and downshifts when i want it to. 
    • I vote go red. Only because I hate keeping gloss black clean. Was no worries helping out either! Glad you've survived the rain outs of QLD
    • I would again like too thank Matt for his help in me sourcing the detachable hard top for the little red car, without Matt's assistance in inspecting it and locking it down, I can guarantee it would have sold before I could get up to see it,  and as that was the only available NC hardtop in Australia, I consider myself extremely lucky on multiple levels To say I'm more that happy would be an understatement And, it is 100% water tight, I drove through torrential rain coming back south, and by torrential, they type of rain that doing 40kph in a 110kph zone was a real thing, and even then, the standing water on the Hwy was deep enough to throw waves I'm also more than happy that the huge "BEASTS" that Matt calls dogs didn't eat me for lunch, I'm sure the sniffs and licks were more to "taste test" me, over being to friendly Now to work out what colour to get it painted, panel match, or gloss black........first world problems are real
    • Actually I might have figured out. Looks like there is a tab according to google images but it's hidden. Silly me.
