    u could get it painted at a reputable shop. any reputable shop should be able to paint match it to ur car and make it look perfect. check around for pricing. I know mugenep did his, forgot how much exactly he said it cost for the paintjob part of it.

    i think the paint job was free coz it took the shop forever to paint tony's grill.

    Its easy for a shop to match the paint, since its a new vehicle the paint is going to be the same as the paint code and also a shop can match up paint by buffing and detailing to make it look perfect, try to go to a local shop though because it should be cheaper then a Honda dealership. Im guessing that it will cost you about $100.00 to paint it because its about $20.00 for the paint and the rest will go to labor and will only take a day. Good luck though
