Default 05 RS 1.0 i need a new grill. Anyone know where to find?

So yea as it says i've got an 05 xA RS 1.0 and the clear coat on the grill is completely gone. I brought it to a few places and the cheapest i could get it repainted and such is about $450. Anyone selling one with 0 damage? Essentially brand new? Dealer said they'd have to get another from Japan and it'd be about 350 and take 4 weeks to get here

Yep. Sand all the old clear coat off with 400 grit sand paper and until you don't see the flaking clear coat any more. Then Shoot clear over it, let it sit for a couple days, then sand it with 1000 grit then 2000 grit sand paper and polish it.

Should look good as new.
