I need to know this as well. I just received my unpainted TRD parts from Carson Toyota. I have the color code for my asphalt color FRS, but I need the code for the unpainted matte black sections. Please, anyone have any info on this?

Many thanks.

Here are some images(sorry for the large size)

Yeah, it is not matte black on the unpainted version. I thought that the unpainted front lip would come with the matte black section, or that the matte section was plastic, but apparently this is not the case. The unpainted version looks exactly like the image above.

What do plan to do with the license plate holder area...or do you have to run a state plate up front?

The State plate can not fit on the plate holder on the TRD front, I have to super glue on it to my car.

by the way where I can get that small emblem on the front lower lip, some jerk peel it off my car at the mall...

I think that matte black is the same as the black on the side mirrors (Not sure if it is, but it seems like it haha, even though that black is just plastic...)

Interested in this as well. Had the full kit but the dealer painted all of it in gloss.

just a standard black base coat, doesn't matter too much. its the clear that matters. has to have a flattener mixed in to achieve the gloss level you want. usually ratios are for eggshell, semi, or flat gloss level.

Pretty sure there are JDM to USDM plate bracket adapters available. Just gotta search for them.
