thats due to the parts you described being plastic...
painted plastic verses metals with the same paint code will undoubtedly have some slight tonal variations to them...less noticable in darker colors and more noticable in lighter colors...
nissan isnt the only auto maker with this unfortunate side effect, many auto manufacturers experience this same issue...
ex: my 04 ford is oxford white and it has the same yellowing issue on the front/rear bumper as well as the side moldings...

I've been bugging nissan over the last month but they're saying "its normal" - a bit annoying since ive seen nissan micra's with better paint matching. |
