On your Nissan, the bumper covers serve to cover unsightly (but important) parts of the bumper impact absorption system and make your bumpers match other exterior body panels. Nissan bumper covers are attached to the bumper face bar on your Nissan, and they require sturdy supporting hardware to stay in place. The Bumper Cover Support Rail provides that support.
Your Nissan has bumper cover support rails on the sides or center (sometimes both) of the bumper cover (the plastic piece that's painted to match the exterior). These rails are engineered to mount the bumper cover and keep it in place. If an accident or fender bender has caused damage to the bumper cover on your Nissan, your Bumper Cover Support Rail is likely damaged, too. You may be able to move the bumper cover in order to replace a warped or bent Bumper Cover Support Rail at home, but you'll need to ensure you have a Bumper Cover Support Rail that's been specifically designed for your Nissan.
For the best fit and easiest installation, don't settle for generic parts. Give your vehicle the care it deserves and shop for an OEM replacement Bumper Cover Support Rail directly from Nissan. Nissan genuine parts are designed for a seamless fit and have a 12,000 mile/12 month limited warranty (whichever happens first), as long as installation is completed by an authorized dealer when you purchase.
