I ordered some AG2 to compare with the "red lips" of the 2015 Nismo. While the red color matches, there's this "metallic" sheen to the paint that is not in AG2. Doing some personal research I've discovered a color called "Sparkle Red" by Dupli-Color. Supposedly Nissan calls this color "A15" in their inventory code... but I can't find anything like that from Nissan.

I've ordered a sample of Sparkle Red from Dupli-Color to do some on-hands investigation... or possibly mixing a bit with "AG2" to see if it works. Will report findings ASAP.

Please note this is an experiment for "touch up" purposes when the red lips are damaged by road chips. The lips are supposed to be OEM prepainted when ordered from Nissan. You don't have to order paint for them, if that red is the color you want.
