Default Trim Ring for double din Kenwood

I need a larger trim surround for the double din Kenwood. The trim surround it comes with does not fill the gap above the sound system and the cup holder. Where can I get just the trim?
I have installed and wired this completely myself and it sounds great! Along with a rear view camera. Unfortunately scratched my bumper when I slipped...

Unfortunately, this is one of the down sides with using aftermarket radios. The bezels are never designed to fit perfectly like the OEM. Are you using a double din mount kit or trying to modify the existing single din chassis?

Give CAI a call, his kit for DIN install works perfect, call them and tell them which deck you have.

I know it is expensive but car audio innovation has it and fits perfectly. I just put one in my car with Kenwood double din model.

This is the email I got back inquiring about the trim ring:
hello Paul,

we do sell this bezel, it's $89 and is also on our webstore. I can send an invoice through our webstore if you like, or you can call with a credit card number. We charge sales tax if we ship to CA residents, but no sales tax outside of Calif.

Shipping is $7.20

This assumes that you mounted the radio using the Kenwood mounting sleeve, similar to our online instructions.
THAT IS INSANE! They sell the entire 997 trim kit for $24.99

Got to be able to get this cheaper somewhere.
