I had the same damage. Although I only have a very low wall and even lower light (and myself, of course) to blame.
That small trim piece is like $40. I have a feeling you’ll be more pleased with the outcome if you just buy a new piece than you would if you spent $15 on touch up paint and tried to make it work.
Why don't they sell them already painted, since every vehicle has the same color cap?
Long story short, Ford does not sell touch up paint that matches the silver painted trim on the front and rear bumpers, which seems like an oversight. My paint color is ingot silver, and it was a close enough match for me to use it to touch up a rock chip on the silver trim, though the silver trim is a slightly lighter color silver than the ingot silver.
Bummer. Even though it’s a small spot it still catches my eye constantly and irritates me. I know vehicles don’t stay new forever, but less than 1K miles is infuriating.
And yeah, I looked up buying a new cover hoping it would be painted. Found out it was under $100, but needs to be painted. Probably not worth the expense. Not to mention I probably still wouldn’t be happy with the color match. I never am. I have always been able to tell when something has been repainted.
