Default ANYONE find an exact match to the RS4/Kamei grill diamond shapes......

From say Ace, or Home Depot? I have seen where people replace the lower plasic pieces but usually they are using a much smaller diamond shape, about 1/2 the size. I am looking for the same size and will have it powder coated to match. TIA
