Default OEM Camaro grilles...still available?

Where is my best bet to score one of these? Mine got all drilled up by the dealership since it's state law to sell a car with a front plate. I want to have a nice grille without straying too far from the stock look so I'm going to paint it glossy and accent the "CAMARO". I checked gmpartsdirect's restoration section but it was all for older cars and I don't have a part number to work with. Any ideas? Thanks.

I was under the impression you literally had to break them to remove them. Not the case?

why dont you just remove the grille and fill the mounting holes? It looks a hell of a lot better than that cheap piece of plastic.

Or spend the coin and get the Bowtie/SS grille from SLP.
