Default Traction control button replacement :/

Hi all, quick question. I made the mistake of being a little too rough while installing a carbon fiber overlay by the mode selector and I got a little scratch on my traction control button.

I’ve been searching online but can’t seem to find a replacement. Besides calling the dealer for what I’m sure will be a fun call…. Any ideas where I can get a replacement?

Black sharpie it is, lol. I appreciate the feedback everyone. This is my first Vette, 2021 HTC 2LT Z51, bought it earlier this month with only 3k miles on it! I'm already approaching 4k in 3 weeks. It has surpassed my expectations! Here is some more of the carbon fiber interior overlay I've added to to the interior.

Yeah, a Sharpie... and just consider it analogous to a dueling scar.
