Default silver radio trim kit?

New GS owner here.. Was wondering if there was a company that makes a double din radio trim kit that comes in silver to match the sport design interior? Did a search but couldn't come up w anything. thanks.

A member (Yakuza_GS) has used a brushed titanium vinyl wrap on his black trim kit and climate controls. Don't know whether it'd be an exact match to the sport design climate controls but check his thread in the Build Threads subsection of this forum for pics. That may be your best option, I've never seen a double din kit with the sportdesign finish.

I searched around forever and couldn't find anything for the silver.. I ended up just vinyl wrapping the whole center(radio, climate and vents)

Default p0441 and p0446 -Why should I care?

I know the codes are related to the Evaporitive Emissions Control System but the car seems to run just fine. Should I rush to get this fixed or is it ok to just ignore for the time being?
Thanks in advance

The JDM kit only comes in gunmatal as the silver sport edition was never available in Japan.

If you really want the color to be a perfect match I highly suggest you remove the face plate from the climate control and paint it a similar silver and paint the 2 din kit at the same time. In my case as Kyle was saying I had them wrapped in a 3M brushed titanium vinyl which I think turned out great
