Can't seem to find a paint-matched license plate frame...
 
Don't hurt me too bad if you find something after a 3 second search....I've searched high and low and I can't find anyone offering a paint-matched rear license plate frame. It seems like every frame either has text of some kind or is chrome or black. I would like a simple frame painted PPW. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks for any help.:cool:

I've never heard of such a thing.

You may need to get this painted yourself.

Paint it.

This would be a custom job, remove your gas cap and take the plate and cap to a shop. Tell them to call you when it matches.

Buy one and paint it. There you go.

haven't come across any color matched frames
try DIY with some autocolor touchup spray paint :dunno:

I just talked to my powder koat guy and he has a pearl powder koat that he is going to do my rims in. He said it is also possible to do a licence plate if its made of metal.

I appreciate the responses guys. That's interesting that it isn't more common. There are several vendors offering paint-matched frames for the vettes and bmws I've had. That's a good idea using the gas lid. I'll get a metal frame and get it to a body shop.

gas cap is the best way, its what I did when I had my bumper painted PPW. Because it is so difficult to match they usually have to do it 3+ times before it is right.
