Question LT1 radiator bracket?

I'm not sure if that is the absolutely correct term but it's close. On my old Camaro (1998) I had an LT1 radiator bracket that was made of polished aluminum. The part is located on the top of the radiator and holds the radiator in place and the front of the part connects to the front metal support nearer to the headlights. The stock piece is plastic, but I'm looking for a replacement to the polished aluminum part I got when I installed the twin turbos. The stock MAF caused a slot to be cut into the metal cover for clearance. Well, an SD tune has eliminated the MAF and left the slot. It can't be repaired or patched and still look good so a new part is needed.

Anyone know of a vendor that makes such a part?

TIA

Elmer

This might be better in the appearance forum. If a mod would like to move it over there, I'd be amenable to that.

Thanks,

Elmer

I think BMR makes one. It's called the upper radiator support
