    Wondering if anyone knows a good source to get an already painted (Super White) lower headlight filler trim piece? My driver's side either popped out or was taken off the truck and I just noticed today. All the ones I can find are either black or primed, but was hoping to be able to find one that is already painted in Super White (040 paint code).

    EDIT: this is for the 2.5 gen, mine is a 2014

    I bought generic gloss white paint and matches my paint pretty good on my bumper plugs.

    Yeah that's the plan if no one can help me source some already painted. Figure a DupliColor paint match + clearcoat should do the trick.

    When I had my super white, I used rustoleum (the white can) to color match my grill and it was a dead nuts match. The gloss was even pretty good and didn’t need a topcoat. Lasted for 2 years before I got rid of the truck.

    Very good to know...the cheaper the better for such an inconsequential piece lol. If it wasn't right on the front of the truck, and I didn't have to notice it every time I got in the car, I wouldn't even bother tbh.

    I’m sure you could even get away with an white gloss vinyl wrap.
