    just got the piece from the upholstery shop. I installed the tarp loops and just used zip ties, but when I have more time I'll make up one or two braided cables so people can't just walk away with it. Best Thing about this one is I didn't have to screw pieces into the grill.
    .
    Total Cost with tarp repair kit: 45$
