Where to find lower mesh/grill for pre-lci E92?

Hello guys,

My lower grill/mesh has a few chunks missing and I am looking to replace all 3 (center, passenger side leading to oil cooler, and driver side) with the black version to match the black kidney grills I just bought.

My goal is something like this: http://i51.tinypic.com/fje0ds.jpg

The only thing I could find is the 328i coupe lower grills which are black, but apparently those block air to the oil cooler.

I would repaint mine, but it has some holes/breaks in it in a couple places from rocks.

Whenever I look at pictures of black kidney grills, it looks like people have the lower grills blacked out too, instead of the 335i's silver. I can't find an answer.

Closest I could find is this: https://bimmian.com/Accessories-for-...ills/RaceMesh/ (select lower intake grills then powdercoat black or black chrome) However, not sure if these block the oil cooler too.

I am at a loss, any suggestions?

Thanks! This looks like exactly what I am looking for.

However, on this link there is no option to purchase, and when I search for the part number or the name on google I am not getting anything. Maybe I will send them an email to ask.
