What ever happened w/ the Outdoor expression options for the vue? anyone know if these parts are still available?

Were those actually options or just some one-off pieces that the factory did? The roof rack looks like the roof rack used on the 2005 (2006?) and up VUEs. The push bar on the front bumper does look cool. I've been thinking about getting this one for mine:

There are a couple members on here that have it and it looks pretty cool.

The side body cladding is still available- but expensive. There was recently a thread with someone asking about it and someone posted a link. I too like the look of it.

The tires look like these tires:

I really like these tires. I see them on tons of trucks and SUVs here in Colorado. My only thing is that I don't use my VUE off road (or even on dirt roads) enough to justify such an aggressive tire. And because my VUE is a FWD 4 cylinder (it's really a one-wheel-drive if I get one wheel to spin), it's not very off-road capable anyway.

I like the Outdoor Expressions. The Urban Expressions looks like it became the Redline. Here's a google link:

This is not a very good pic but it's what I installed on my OUTLOOK, bull bar by ROMIKhttp://www.romik-usa.com/. I do like the looks of the Outdoor Expressions VUE.

I have a 2003 that is the "Active Expression". It is yellow, has a brush guard, running boards, sunroof deflector, rear deflector, and mud flaps. Also has the leather package, upgraded sound system and rubber mats (including cargo mat).

I don't know what this Expression morphed into in subsequent years.

I like the wheels on the Urban Expression.
