Would anyone be interested in this? I have the body side moldings and the chrome sills and have been told "Man, looks awesome... Now all u need is the top" (luggage rack)

This is the same concept as done on the escalades. I spoke to Burtman bout something like this and well Im interested to see if others would like something to dress up the top... He needs a few people interested to fab something up anyway...

Here are some pic I found Off an '08 on Ebay! I think they are interchangeable on the '08 Mada but I am not sure. I am almost positive they will not fit on the prev gen. Mada because we have the short style. Hope this helps!

From the pics I get the feeling that they will fit in the previous gen Armada. If you look at the pics there is a grey piece where the previous gen rear rack used to attach. I don't think they even filled the hole there, they just put a little plastic piece there and extended the rack all the way to the front.

Call up YourNissanParts.com Toll Free: (866) 782-6255. I'm estimating the Nissan parts should be closer to $600 but it's tough to tell for sure. Infiniti is usually marked up quite a bit.

You will also need the plates for the holes you are not using anymore.
