I pulled my front end apart to clean, install new grill, bezels, headlights and install headlight relay harness. I pulled the grill trim off and removed the old faded and cracked/missing dark blue vinyl inlay. I realized after I got it all removed that I probably won't find a replacement. Now, I have all new shiny front end but I'm stuck on this trim.

I ordered some "Dark blue" carbon fiber 3M vinyl. I know I know. I was just curious about the color. It came in today. I installed it and compared it to the truck color. Haha nope! Too light of a color.

Any suggestions? Color suggestions? Does anyone sell original color vinyl for these pieces?

The 88 is Grey/Silver and blue with baby blue pinstripe.

I painted mine but I’m sure you can find something close
 
Side bar kinda: Can the entire grill be painted or is it too much trouble? I'm on a flat black mission lately haha
 
Any auto paint supply shop should be able to match what colour you want and put it in a spray can for you.
