Default Black Porsche License Frame--Where To Find?

I purchased a chrome license plate frame for my 997 from Porsche
and don't like the look. I think a black Porsche frame would
look better. Porsche dealer said they don't exist.

Anyone know where to find a black Porsche frame?

Thanks.

Google is your friend. Hint: type in exactly what you're looking for.

I prefer no frame or a plain frame. Who needs a frame spelling Porsche? Don't we know the car's make?

As noted by others in this thread, Porsche license plate frames in black indeed are available. I bought mine from Carlsen Porsche, but it looks like Suncoast is more competitive on price at the moment.

I have used the Autocross frame on all cars for 15+ years. Very clean looking (I prefer simple, no logos.) The cover is illegal in some states including here in California, but I was only ticketed once more than a dozen years ago, and its just a fixit ticket anyway.

A black ***-marked frame is available at Meijers in Michigan for a few bucks.
