very hard to find in any condition, usually expensive in good condition and i see you're from out of town... wow. i'd hang on to the pieces you have for now, it's not hopeless but be prepared for a shock
i recall seeing one made of metal, i thought the guy said he was gonna make them for sale but i don't recall ever hearing anything more of it for years now. it wasn't an exact copy but workable, and it wouldn't keep crumbling like the 40 year old plastic

Did anyone ever make the metal grill surrounds? Mine is cracked and I'm looking for one. Also I have the rear bench and front bucket seats for sale. The rear bench is in great shape but the buckets will need a little work but still look farely good. They are black vinyl. Email me at mcclainshane06@gmail.com

Not off hand. One could fabricate one, I an actually looking at investing into a plastic 3D printer to start making repair sections and see if it's possible to make brand new.
I know it's a bit insane, but someone has to start.

Just talked to one of our maintenance test pilots here and his son has a 3d printer I might get him to print one for me.
