turbospec29 Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 I just picked up a new xterra and want to get some things done to it that will help it last. I was thinking of getting the bottom and wheel wells sprayed to keep from surface rust and salt decay. What is the best product for this and where can I go to have it done? Also, I'd like some minor upgrades like wheel flares and maybe a brush guard, any recommendations? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Chief2011647545501 Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 Id suggest a rubberized undercoating.... I just did that on my ranger it looks great and should keep the rust and salt from eating the car all to hell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skinner Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 what the gay? there is nothing more gay on suv/trucks then wheel flares.... looks horrible an cheep looking.Get some prerunner flared fenders for it if you want that look all depends on the type of flare. http://www.truckcustomizers.com/images/prods/BUS/Bushwacker-Flat-Style-Fender-Flares-Jeep-Cherokee-XJ-large.jpg once I finally do my lift I would love to puts these on my Jeep I just cant see spending $500 on them. As for the undercoating do it my Jeep was done by the original owner and there is not a spot of rust on the undercarriage. as for aftermarket not sure whats available Best thing I can suggest is to find a eterra forum and see what they recommend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbospec29 Posted September 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 The fender flares are at the bottom of the list. After some quick searching I haven't found any I like on the xterras. I want to know the what best thing to coat the inside of the wells and bottom is.

turbospec29 Posted September 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2010 yo what up keith? xterra really?????? i just pick up a jeep yesterday Hey man! What kind of jeep did you get? It was time for me to get a truck... Wheel flares and etc. are going to promote rust... lol. I guess they could, I will look around. Haven't really found any for the new xterras yet anyway, I want to keep the sides from getting covered in shit in the winter. Anyone heard of Valuguard paint protection? Is it worth the $280 to help the paint last? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spankis Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 Also interested, as my Dad was asking me about where might be best for Line-xing his new truck's bed. Cheap is good, but durability is better, as he'll have it a good long while. It seems that maybe there are no "deals" to be had though, as about all the prices I see are near identical....

Cheap is good, but durability is better, as he'll have it a good long while. It seems that maybe there are no "deals" to be had though, as about all the prices I see are near identical.... I am pretty sure Line-X can only be applied by a Line-X location, so pricing should be the same. You might be able to find some online coupons for like 5% off. A friend of mine got his truck bed done by Line-X and he gave me a coupon for 5% off that they gave him to hand out to people. I haven't got my truck in to get the truck bed done, but there is no expiration date on that coupon, so I am not rushing it. I have heard nothing but good about the toughness and durability of Line-X over the competitors, plus that life time warrenty is a seller for me.
