^^^ i think you have to order that from Nissan or pick it up from the showroom....I have done the headlights several times and I think the adhesive silicon from AAP/Autozone holds up just fine

Its all good now. Finished it all up and she drives smooth as hell now and shifts perfectly. Not going to lie, that 3rd gear pressure sensor was a bitch. Also, I learned my lesson and won't be using 3/8 inch sockets and extensions next time as my breaker bar completely snapped one of the extensions in half. Switched to 1/2 inch pieces and it came of the first turn. Thanks swoosh for letting me know that order for the drain and switches. Next 2x3 should go a lot faster

I just went on their website, they have a mix-your-own-color kit 
http://www.plastidip.com/home_soluti...Your_Color_Kit
Unfortunately its only a dip, not an aerosol spray.

Well, didn't mean it as a knock...just reminds me of it! 
Love the look, man...I have all my silver trims done in black too!

I can tell you that plastidip is a great foundation for any other color. I did that as a layer on the front part of the engine cover in case I ever changed my mind and wanted to peel.

Especially since you can just peel it off if things go south
