I've had several nissans in the past, just upgraded myself to a 2016 qx70...I got a really good deal on a base model with only 6k miles on it....now I'm kicking myself bc it's the base and it's missing some of the stuff I really wanted.
So far I've added some full coverage floor & cargo mats, chrome bumper guard, chrome window pillar/post trim, tonneau cover, moonroof deflector, rear splash guards, and some Infiniti logo ghost lights.....
I have the illuminated kick plates, sitting in a box waiting to be installed-getting remote start done at the same time.
I hate that my new car doesn't have navigation or Bluetooth for music...I'm probably going to go with an aftermarket system-any suggestions? I kept my 2010 Nissan Rogue, it's now the dog car-can't have 5 pits riding in the new Infiniti. I use a garmin in my Rogue (I like to see what traffic looks like and have an estimated eta), but don't want to junk up the dash with a Garmin in the new car. I also looked into adding the factory navigation setup, but it's crazy expensive, and I've heard not great things about the factory navigation....help?
The only other thing that I wish I had, roof rails...the naked roof is nice, but the rails are so sweet looking....adding them at this point is going to be crazy expensive. Anyway....hello! I'm looking forward to getting some ideas and tips from you all....I love my new car

Those are nice floor mats!!! Grats on the new ride. I installed a Parrot Bluetooth kit in my car and it works like OEM. Better actually cause you can update it when there are glitches with newer phones (like every time a new iPhone comes out :P )... And I actually just use Google Maps as my GPS now since it's super easy to use the voice recognition to find a place and it has live traffic updates and automatically reroutes me. I have another GPS that I installed to be almost OEM and I never use it now since the phone over Bluetooth works so well as a GPS...

I'll have to look into the parrot Bluetooth kit...only thing is I don't want to use my phone for gps 24/7 if I can help it...I get super annoyed when I get a call and can't hear/use gps at the same time-1st world problems!
 
Here's one of their higher end kits that can be plug and play if you buy a special harness. Not cutting or splicing of wires required (which was what I did)... But they have another special touch screen unit that looks MIGHTY intriguing... Wonder if it's possible to swap out our screen for that thing...

Whoops! Looks like I forgot to include the link earlier:

Parrot MKi9200
