Currently I am building a crimson trooper and I have hit a roadblock in the form of a gray pipe for the thermal detonator. I have visited Lowe's and home Depot and neither have the right size PVC pipe as it is either too big or too small. My question is where can I get this pipe at, or are there files for me to 3d print

Really depends on what size endcaps you got with your kit, many suppliers add pipe to their armor kits.

 

Have you tried scrap yards, I've found quite a bit of weird sized pvc pipe that way.

 

When I've been stuck before for pipe sizes I've used a larger pipe, cut a slots in it, heated closed then glue.

 

I ran across this 3D file some time ago, it's free but I've not tried it https://www.printables.com/model/485448-star-wars-storm-trooper-thermal-detonator
