HERE ARE ALL MATCHING PAINTS (sidemarkers, etc)

Since alot of guys are saying how "hard" it is to find a matching paint color for exterior stuff (including painting your side markers body-color), I have compiled the paint codes for DUPLI-COLOR paint, which is sold at most auto parts stors (Advance Auto, Autozone, etc)

The paints are sold in several sizes, but what you guys want is the 5oz spray can for these applications.

So here are the paint codes:
The first thing (3 letters) is the NISAAN color code that is marked on your car
The second part is the Dupli-color paint name (NOT the Nissan Paint Name necessarily)
The last numbers are the Dupli-Color paint code

Obviously, I used the KH3 black....

For 2003 Nissans in general (including maxima)

Sorry I might sound stupid but I thought sterling mist was KT3.

Am I wrong?

grey lustre has a small % of green metallic in it. i know it's weird to see, but during some shades of daylight, it'll look like a light green. when i had my grill painted awhile back, one of the "after" pictures looked like a totally different car
