There was a post on here somewhere that used black Nissan OEM replacements but I can't find it anywhere.

The oil cap is an easy fix. The dipstick might be impossible unless going aftermarket. Mainly looking for the brake reservoir cap, coolant overflow cap and windscreen washer bottle cap.

Something like this:


Ive painted mine (every yellow part under hood including dip stick), and IMO, they look great. It is all about prep. Clean the parts. use adheasion promoter, primer, several coats of paint then clear.


Or, clean and spray black auto fabric dye on them. It will "soak" into the plastic and not ever flake off.

Or spend money on black parts, when one 8$ can will do what you want.

Good luck.
