Painting it would be your least expensive route . If you must replace it try a few Porsche dealerships and negotate the price with their parts dept . It won't cost 2K because I had even looked into a leather one for my Turbo and it was expensive ---but not 2K .

It sounds like your dealership is charging full retail price plus cranking up the installation rate . Find another dealership for service too . If they can't work with you in your time of need then maybe the one who does ought to earn your future business.
