Had just purchased my 2006 Xterra and a rock flew up and smashed out both the fog light and the cover.... called Nissan for a quote and they told me it would be $480 to replace. Figured I would search for the part somewhere else... almost two years later and I still can find a replacement cover I can only find the bulb.
