The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13156 would not be able to fit your 2003 Nissan Pathfinder with your rear bumper guard installed. The guard would need to be removed in order for this hitch to fit on your vehicle.

Hey bro do you know where your bumper guard is from or the dimensions of it because I have the Infiniti version of this car and I’m looking for the same one.

@Pearse Lou should get an email that you commented on his answer page and hopefully he responds! It looks like the Nissan Pathfinder Black Horse Rear Bumper Guard though.
