Any idea if a black version of this Gas Meter cover can be bought anywhere?

Took this off today assuming it was metal and could be powder coated but its GRP. I know i could paint it, but i have had limited success at that kind of thing, Is it possible to get it in black grp, or can anyone recommend somewhere i could get it painted professionally with a lacquer aswell to protect?

That would be easily painted with rattle cans, with care taken to mask the surrounds and properly clean the GRP beforehand. But it's a job best left to drier weather..
