I was looking for the sealing foam that goes in-between the radiator and radiator support.

I highlighted a photo so you could see what I'm talking about. I was going to check my local auto parts stores, just wanted to know if anyone had any ideas as to find the next best thing to replace this foam?

If anything give your local nissan dealer a call, give them you VIN and have them look it up, doubt they'll have it but it will save you more time than searching online or have someone search for you.

That would be a good idea.

Nissan does not carry that particular foam any more. Ended up using Home Depot A/c foam, won't melt.

Ok, guess I'll head to the hardware store instead, I found this on ACE's website, may just work:
