    LOL you gotta have a little thick skin when you're askin for advice regarding some brands...all good though. Yea I don't think you'll find any grill assembly without the center intact. Just cut it out and make it look clean, shouldn't be a problem.

    Probably going to have to buy a new grill and cut out the center. or cut the center out of yours after painting it the color of your choice.

    More than likely you'll have to punchout the inset. I've never heard of just a grille surround.

    OP: I would check eBay and the other places already suggested. eBay has black grilles for under $50 usually.

    I would say you might have to buy a new like you said or just see if you can find a used one in a junk yard or craigslist. Welcome to TW

    this grill is thirty dollars before shipping and you'll have to cut out the center but it's probably the cheapest you'll find.

    it's not hard to cut out either. just use either a hack saw and an electric sander and you should be good to go. it won't have to look perfect since you're putting a plate over the front of it
