Default 350Z Nismo Gray Front V3 Bumper Lip & Side Skirts Correct Color Code KH2

Hi guys. I just wanted to provide the correct color code for the Nismo side skirts bottom parts and front lip for those who are looking for it after seeing so many threads on this forum with the wrong color code which was K11. I had a very deep scratch on my Nismo side skirt bottom piece and I had a Nissan K11 touch up paint after reading here that it is the code for it. Well, it did not match the rest of the side skirt after I touched it up, not even close. I then called Nissan to double check and they said the color code is KH2. I went to my body shop so they can make that color and it is a 100% match, they also showed me K11 on the computer, again, it might be close enough for some people but it really is not an exact match.

Good to know. I had my side skirt repainted K11 and it was almost perfect match. But there are many factors that go into mixing paint.

You will not realize the difference if you had your whole side skirt bottom repainted because they are so close. Even when you see the difference comparing to the front lip, you would think it is due to the light, angle etc.

My shop only painted about quarter of the side skirt with KH2 due to the deep scratch and you cannot even tell that it was ever painted by looking at the painted and other section so it is a 100% match

Any idea what the paint code is for the nismo rims? Looks like it would be the same.

I sold the Nismo rims a while ago so never needed the color code for them. I don't think they are the same as the sides though, as far as I remember the rims were more flat comparing to the sides. The sides are metallic with a ton of different colors in them, even some blue if you look close enough

i have my v3 bumper getting some work done and came across this thread , I told the shop kh2, but after further research the r35 and 370z lip color is kae which makes me think the 350z should be no different. I am going to switch the paint color to kae once my side skirts come in.

Hi,

I ended up buying KH2 to cover a scratch on my rear nismo bumper. It is definitely off. KH2 is a few shades darker. Maybe my bumper faded? Was it ever resolved as to which exact paint code is it? K11, KH2, or KAE?
