Perhaps a salvage yard?  Maybe the Focus, Escape, and C-Max all use the same headrest?  Here is a link for a nation wide search of participating salvage yards.  Put in what you are looking for, and you might find it.  You can also send a message of what you need if you don't find it.  I looked real quick under Headrest but didn't see any listed for just a C-Max.

Salvage yards can be very territorial, I have a buddy that runs one, and you almost have to go look for the part you need. My daughter has an 2007 Tahoe with a broken mirror, the mirror its self is pretty cheap but the paint makes it cost about $400, $100 under the deductible, I have tried for a year to find one. They use the same mirror on about six different vehicles and only have four colors. You would think that it would be easy to find a gray one but I haven't found one yet.

I don't understand "Salvage yards can be very territorial".  My son needed a passenger outside mirror with heat and memory for his Buick Rendezvous.  Using the link I listed for the OP, I found numerous mirrors throughout the country.  I was able to find several in the same color as his that needed replacement.  The yard I bought from shipped it and the cost was under $60.00!  I called and spoke to them before buying, and they provided answers to all of my questions. The mirror and glass were in GREAT condition!

 

From a GM dealer, an unpainted mirror would have been over $300.00 if not more. Have you tried the car-parts link I posted?  I did a quick search and found numerous mirrors in grey, just don't know what options or what side you need.  Here is a copy of the search fields you can use to look for a mirror for your daughters car at that site.
