Default color to match license plate frame?

Looking for a license plate frame that matches my car (meteor grey). I prefer a simple frame only. I seem to remember that someone carries this, but cannot remember. Any help?

Here's a site that will sell blank plates for cheap, I bought the black plastic, not real sturdy but they do the job.
Took a heat gun and *carefully* molded the front frame to match the curve of the OEM plate holder. Trimmed the license plate and flattened the ridges and curved it as well so it just fits inside the frame. Makes the plate look smaller.
I did a lot of searching but didn't see any custom color frames to match our cars. Mine is seal gray so the black looks ok. Good luck!

What about just buying a metal one of the style you like, and then have a body shop give it a quick coat of color-matched paint. Shouldn't be too expensive. (I'm thinking of doing that)
