Midsection Trunk Lid...

Hi. I've seen on some 3rd generation Maximas people have changed the midsection of the trunk lid. Like the part where it says Maxima on the back, I've seen it the color of the car. How do people do that?

I had that done when I had my car repainted, it cost about $500 on top of the paint job and he gave me a break because I was doing the whole car.
