Headlight washer caps?

Do they exist in black? I've found nothing but the chrome ones and have seen the black ones for older models, but not '13. I've scoured the usual online stores, but not a single black one anywhere.

Are yours black? How did you do it? Vinyl wrap? Paint? Plastidip?

or 3M sheets cut to fit : get the gloss black and it matches the stock gloss "black line" from MINI for the headlights and tailights.
