I'm looking to black out the Cerium Grey boomerangs in the fog light housing. All I can find tho is the full housing with the black boomerang.

Auto Teknic is the only company I've found (I think) that sells just that piece, but it's carbon, and I'm looking for gloss black.

I don't want to paint them because I want an ultra-high gloss look, and a rattle can won't do it justice.


Does anyone have any tips for this?

Have you tried a local paint shop? They usually carry the black gloss since it is used a lot. I had a panel on a former motorcycle that I wanted to match. As long as there is no prep to be done they can do it in minutes for a few dollars. Cost nothing to ask.

Yeah just doesn’t seem cost effective for a small piece.

Buy some 3m 2080 and wrap it, I did it with cheap circuit vynil and it’s held up 6 months

Yeah? I’ll give it a shot. Do you have pics? Seems like a pretty hard wrap.

You can purchase the entire gloss black assemblies from AliExpress for like $60.00 shipped.

I looked into this as well but I’m not sure if you can just remove the boomerang. I’m trying to avoid putting aftermarket parts in since I’m on CPO extended.
The boomerang looks easy enough to remove and replace but the full housing looks a bit harder

+1 for Aliexpress. Quality and fitment was like OEM.
And if you swap the whole grill you can swap back easily when you return the car.
