A/C Vent Cover Discoloration/Stains? (1 Viewer)

[denverj86]

Hi to all - new 2005 LX owner, just flew down to TN and drove her back to Denver. 260k, but very minimal wear. I finally found my creampuff! HOWEVER, and I know this is common - but does anyone have any experience repainting the a/c vents next to the nav/HU? Very simple to remove, but one new vent is $150 with Toyota/Lexus. Not having any luck finding any on eBay for any less. Not sure if any discounted parts places exist that you guys may know of.

Any feedback much appeeciated

I haven't seen anyone do it, but a scotchbright pad and some plastic compatible krylon, seems like it would work fine.
