Late reply but check out realoem in the future for car parts & part numbers.

In 2012 and later models the trim you're referring to was changed from a matte black plastic to a high gloss finish. You could try taking the part numbers to your dealership and see if you can order the 2010/2011 trim pieces.

PS: For some reason the part numbers for 2011 and 2012 are the same, clarify with the dealership that you want the non-high gloss trim.
