Why don't we get the rear fog light anyways? It kind of hacks me off the more I think about it. Anyone have a logical answer?

I believe it has to do with certain states may not allow rear fog lights, only front. So Nissan just removed it from all US bound cars, but I am not 100% on this answer.

TOW HITCH....too funny! Between that comment and the endless amounts of spacers left in the Nismo's I'm losing faith in the Nissan Dealers. Makes it that much easier to mod the car and lose my warranty, not sure I want them wrenching on it anyway.

Wakeboarding? How about snowboarding? I've had 5 days in so far, going next weekend for 3 and Tahoe a couple weeks after that.

Wakeboarding..that's fun too but try surfing behind a boat, we do it all the time in Big Bear, its a blast!

My husband has always wanted to try wake surfing (is that what it's called?) With the ballasts filled, our boat definitely throws a big wake...someday we'll have to try that! I have never been to Big Bear...but have always wondered if I could snowboard. I'm a decent wakeboarder when I want to be.. With all this rain, the conditions are bound to be stellar up there now!

Well... When it warms up your welcome to come up and try it, our boat stays in the water all summer. As far as BB, yes, snow is nuts right now but too darn busy to make it up there. If you guys make it up, shoot me a note and I'll make sure to show you around, its not Aspen or anything but its a nice local spot.

Sorry for the threadjack!!!

Since Puerto Rico is part of the U.S., we DON'T get it either. Shucks!

That fog light will add to your Z because it not only looks cool but also makes you more visible at night. This light is a little brighter than the tail lights. Click on the pic to see what I mean. This pic taken at dusk. Got mine from Z1. They are a great supplier for our Z's.

Hey Antbear, we don't have any crazy rear fog light laws in the state do we? My tint is illegal enough, and I'm sure a fog light would attract more looks then the tint would...

No rear fog light law in OK. . . . . just a radar jammer law.........I'd have one for sure if they were legal.
