If it's normal ABS/plastic/vinyl, you might check your Yellow Pages for "vinyl repair" in your area. Many years ago I had an a-pillar gauge pod color matched to my trim by "Dr. Vinyl", a vinyl repair place here in Omaha (they fix/re-dye seats, dashboards, etc.). I gave them my a-pillar trim and the pod in the morning, and picked it up in the afternoon with a great color match.

If you want to try the DIY route, start Googling for vinyl dyes . . . I've seen it in rattle cans just like paint (and from what I've read they're pretty easy to use). The biggest problem you'll probably run into is trying to find an exact color match.

Good luck,
Tort
