Good luck. You might get lucky finding one in Germany but I couldn't want to guess what shipping would cost.
Your best bet would be a junk yard I would think.

Yes, junk yards but that is pretty dried up. What is wrong with yours?
They usually do not go bad. Black enamel ones (89-90) are virtually indestructible, chrome ones (91-93) are less so due to fading and the grey painted on ones (84-88) are the least long lived because it is not enamel (looks like just paint).

355 would know about this. I believe he had one of his cars re-sprayed and I believe they removed the roof rain diverters.
Whatever you find out please post here. I will need to do the same with my impala brown one. The roof clear coat is shot and it will need to be re-sprayed some day.
Hood was done already by the previous owner. So I just need the roof myself.
If I am not mistaken they are just clipped on and one prys them off with plastic tools but do not quote me on this one.
- Cheers!
