Glen, I think Not ! After reading some comments on your Color which is as stated on the Plate G 326 from what I found this is called "Solid White". Arctic White is S 326 and Storm White is P QAB which is what we have Pearlescent White. There were comments on confusions with matching the Whites sometimes having either blue or yellow Tints in them - Dave

Also, an "artic" is a large truck!

But isn't the "G" for the trim and not the paint code? Graphite perhaps. Arctic White still seems probable.

I am only conversant with J11 paint codes, I will have to Google the J10 paint options although it is likely that you've already done so.

Hi Nicholas, you are absolutely correct that the "G" number is a Trim Ident I just used this to indicate that this 326 number had also letters stated. Trying to find a designation for White or in fact any color ain`t that easy for Nissan or any other manufacturers. Also other Countries, models or build year appear to have different specs.It does appear though that Glen`s color is "Arctic White". Just to show the confusion and what is around take a look at these - Over & Out Dave :

White is indeed a sod to colour-match, even with supposedly "OEM" paint. Hope you find something suitable!

I had a j10 11plate which was definitely Arctic White, there was only 1 white so yours must be the same. Got touch up from Nissan which matched perfect
Hope this helps
