Mine had cracked a few months ago and I was wondering how much they go for? I found one on ebay for about $30 bucks. Only bad thing is i have no idea how much they go for originally. Any help would be great. thanks guys!

$30 is a good price. They normally sell for ~$80.

I checked with nissan a few months ago and they go for about 125.00 for the 5.5 gen cover. Steven88 put a 6th gen cover on his 5.5 gen and according to him it was only like 80 bucks and it looks hella clean..........

5.5 gen


6 gen


Sure that it would fit? The 6 gen looks longer and square at the top. compared to the things coming out of the 5.5 gen (top part)

I think the only reason it looks like that is that the 6th gen covers more of the IM than the 5.5 gen cover but i am positive it will fit.

You should be able to get one on ebay or pick one out of a junk yard, if you can find one.
