There really isn't a place to buy them, its called the tow hook cover. You could try and search but from what I have read they are in high demand.

Yea its called a tow hook cover and I have been told to try to find a private seller online in your car color is the best bet...but I can not find one anywhere online except unpainted and you can get it unpainted at the dealership too for $21...

On a side note, I just made the $10 DIY bumper plugs today(Very easy and suggest if you have these holes) and was possibly going to try to paint the tow hook with touch up paint aswell, but dont know how well it will look...any experience anyone?

I also found a website that sells it unpaint forr 15$. i was wondering if the dealership sells it paint if you asked them to. if not do they sell like extra touch up paint of the pearl white color at the dealership.. any info will do... i will also call the dealership tomorrow.

thanks

Yea they should sell all stock Infiniti colors...and yea I found that website but it ends up to be almost $21 with shipping...

I actually found a local automotive paint store and bought 4 ounces of touch up paint to match my car for only $7 while at the dealership it like 1/2 ounce I think for $12, if you find a local paint store be sure to take your color code (should be on a sticker in your glovebox)

Here is the website for the bumper plugs:

Paint code is under your hood on a tag just above your powersteering tank too. Nice find on the tow hook covers, I know they come unpainted but they sell spray paint called "Dupli Color" at PepBoys which should be better than touch up paint. All you need is your paint code....

No there is a difference between Nissan and Infiniti paint colors. I have the same problem in Blacksburg Va, I just used Dr Colorchop. Th reason they are different is we have a metallic additive in our paint!

You can let any Nissan parts dept. know what you want and they don't have a problem getting it for you and at a cheaper price than Infiniti. Touch up paint, just give them your paint code and you'll have it in a few days if they don't have it in stock....no difference!
