The exterior of the 2008 Nissan Armada has been updated with a new grille, headlights and fog lights. The new exterior also boasts a new, one-piece roof rack and revised, body colored front and rear fascias. LE models get a metallic grille treatment, while SE models get a body-colored grille. LE models also get 20-inch wheels as standard equipment. The slight appearance changes smooth out what was a chunky looking SUV.
