Chrome strips on grille

one of the chrome strips on my 4-slat grille appears to have fallen off

does anyone know where I can get a replacement strip?

Stealer (aka dealer)

Might have to replace the entire grill.

update: the individual chrome strips can be purchased individually from the dealer - each strip has its own unique part # and commands a suprisingly hefty cost (roughly $60 CDN)
