This is my X that I bought back in July '08. Bought it with roughly 33k miles. Nothing special like some of the other rigs on this site, but it works for me. I knew when I bought it that I wanted to make changes to it, so the mods are coming......just slowly.

-Stealthed rear bumper and step, rear side steps, side moldings, front badge

INTERIOR:
-Mag light (not mounted yet)
-Xterra rubber floor mats
-Xterra front seat covers

TIRES/WHEELS/SUSPENSION:
-Stealthed stock steelies
-265/75/16 Cooper Discoverer ATR
-Helper leaf springs

Engine/Performance
-K&N drop in air filter
-Removed Silencer from stock intake box

OTHER:
-Remote starter
-Rear Hatch mod with 175lb struts
-Thule T2 hitch bike rack
-Thule ski/snowboard racks
-Yakima Skybox cargo box

FUTURE PLANS:
-PRG Deaver AALs
-Bilstein 5125 rear shocks
-Tinted front windows to match rears
-Stealth roof rack
-Daystar 2" front spacers and rear AC shackles

All pics, including most updates

When I brought it home in July 08:


February 09- Got some Hella 500FF fog lights, removed the mud flaps, and got a 2" receiver installed:


April 09- Got the wheels stealthed, got covers for the Hellas, and also did the bumper step and side steps with the spray on bed liner:




Bike Hauler


Just to get off the pavement



May2009- best mod of all!


November 2009-stock fog light kit installed


December 2009- New Cooper Discoverer ATR tires 265/75/16



Dec 2009- Painted rear bumper black...and finally got some white stuff!



Jan 2010- Had new roof rack decals printed as the stock ones fell off. Put on my Raingler rack handles. Stealthed front emblem. Helper leafs installed

thanks for the good comments, the wheels are sprayed with dupli-color bed liner, as SeXterraPA used in his DIY write-up (thanks again to SeXterraPA for the great write-up on this cheap, but awesome mod!)
