Default Ecu dash cover

I've seen a few during the summer on sapphire cosworths and been looking for one.

I've got a late J 4x4 but there never seem to be any in the colour of my dash top.

Did they ever do them or have the ones I've seen been colour dyed to match??

Seen the kits, not that good in my opinion but the pictures might not do it justice.

I'd rather an original one, tried some dye but it stood out like sore thumb.

Previous owner did it, pretty sure he said he used a spray paint intended for car interiors, my head lining and a few other bits have been done and the finish looks o.e
