David, I got mine from Mike Ross at BE&A. I sent him the paint (GK6) and he prepped and painted both the grill and the lower grill which I also purchased from him. Spectacular job and it fit perfectly! That said, I'm not sure where Mike actually sourced the part from. Just give Mike a call. Good luck!

Buy the lowest price reproduction on ebay, they are all the ones Metro originally reproduced and are exceptional. However, there are a couple small issues you will have to address before paint. The tooling was reproduced from an NOS grille, grilles are plastic and shrink over time. When the x6 stainless "C" trim was reproduced, they are now a hair to long for the grille since the steal didn't change size. Hand fit the "C" trim by sneaking up on grinding the ends of the trim so they fit perfectly, not a big deal. The other issue is they don't supply the cups that press onto the back of the grille that holds the headlight ring screws in, either use your originals or get a set from R/T Specialties.
