I don't think anyone makes those.

Just paint it yourself. Make sure you do good cleaning and sanding before you paint tho.

Open the hood and you'll see the tabs on the back. Pop them loose and it comes off. I painted mine and love the look.

It's mainly been a 30v thing until recently so if the news has been slow to arrive down south, well...

In all honesty, I did it to sleek out the look a bit and I really love the look.
