does anyone know where i can get it?
OEM vs aftermarket, and will it be same look?

i found this but i am unsure if it is it?

I bought a couple headlight grills from EZ and they aren't the best finish, but they fit fine and haven't had a problem since!

Nice job fixing that hg. Overheating is a problem you don't want to have :D

But about that... you never know. I've probably seen only 2 or 3 E34s here in the last few weeks but yet every time I go to the yard I find at least 4. I suggest you at least try before you start assuming that no one in the entire San Antonio metro area drives an E34. Chances are you will find at least 1.

and this is what i need right . lol

If you ever pass through Austin, hit up Austin Veedub, they will most likely have it for cheap.
