When installing the Roadmaster MX Base Plate Kit # 354-3 on your 2012 Nissan Xterra it does look like you will need to trim the fascia to allow room for the receiver brace. Unfortunately we have not yet installed this particular kit so we don't have a picture or video of this being done, but according to the installation instructions you will want to measure 1 inch in from the edge (on each side) and over 4-1/4 inches, using the yellow lines in the diagram (which I have attached) as a guide.
