Depending on the car, franchise dealer, car wrecker or a cheapy set from Repco or Supercheap Auto.

Cheapy set. New set for $30-$40, replace all four.

so I would go into Rep Co and ask them for a replacement! I would think they would ask the size of the wheel not the car manufacturer!

If your car is fitted with genuine Nissan hubcaps then you would probably need to go to Nissan Dealer for a new one if you want to keep the whole set matching.This will likely be fairly costly.A wrecker also might be able to help.
If your car has cheap generic caps then as above, or you don't mind changing to these,just drop into an auto store and ask to see what replacement hubcaps they have.A full set won't cost much.The salesperson should just take a quick look to see what rim size you have.

What I mean by cheapy is aftermarket hubcaps (or call them wheeltrims if you like) as apposed to going to Nissan and buying one original at a rediculous price. If in fact your car is still on originals, maybe not. The guys at Repco or Supercheap can have a look at your car and see the size easily. Probably 14 inch, poss 15's.

There is a Trademe store here which specialises in wheel trim, look under Services > Trades > Automotive and type in 'The Wheel Trim Centre'

silphies are usually on 15 inch wheels -some on 14 inch. I'd call the local nissan wrecker OR go back to the dealer you got the car from--they might5 have a few sitting on a shelf somewhere
