GEN 5 Gear Shift Panel replacement

Hey all,

Anyone know where I can find the attached pic but in Silver for 2018 EXL? I can find Red, Black, Carbon Fiber and Wood Grain all over the place but not in the factory issued Silver. I was able to find replacement panels for the air vents in silver just not this piece. I'd like to keep the same look if possible.

The closest I found was replacing the entire gear shift unit. I am not looking to do that.

Apparently my air freshner caused the panel to crack. Although it happened to my center AC vent panel too and I didn't have the Air Freshner there.

Thanks
JM

Never used it before so I'm not sure if that will work. I'll look into it.

I don't mind the Black or Carbon but I prefer to keep the original look. Knowing that one little part is different from the rest might drive me nuts. And I don't want to change the entire interior trim. At least not right now.

Thanks, but I am holding out hoping there is an easier peel and stick type of option or finding the actual replacement part. I am pretty sure the cracks will still be visible even if painted over.

This isn't a huge issue for me but I'd like to make sure I exhausted all options before making a decision. I'd hate to go with the black panel and find out later that silver was available.

I'm a little hesitant with using paint. I feel too many things can go wrong on my end.

Or are you guys saying to buy the black and paint the new part? Maybe I missed the obvious.

This is what I'm dealing with if it helps at all.
