Default Keyhole covers?

anyone know where to get'em? I went searchin on the g00gle and only found some for the porsche, i know the TLs have them also, it would be awesome if I could cover the trunk's keyhole and the driver side keyhole with a flush (or close to flush) look!

Thanks in advanced to anyone who finds it!

Camry ppl they use plugs that can be bought at HomeDepot, and paint and cut it to fit into the keyhole.

Question, Do they bother you that much that you need to do this? I mean the trunk on is hidden not like the camry one, and for the doors, who cares?

It honestly didn't bother me until about 2-3 weeks ago, when i loaned the car to someone and they tried to stick the key in the hole. Now the door handle's an additional paint piece that goes to the shop tomorrow lol. As for the trunk, it bothers me yes, because the keyhole gets so black and it isn't easy to wash.

Anywho, I've gotten someone who makes them for a living fabricate one for the GS, or try to so far. I'll let you guys know the outcome along with some pictures if it's successful
