Question Looking for unwanted stock grille

Hey guys,

I know a lot of you have upgraded to the single fin grille for your R230's. I am looking for a stock grill with or without distronic. Preferably one with the chrome slats on the fins.
Need it for an 05 SL, so per-facelift. Let me know what you guys have, will pay for part and shipping.

I am looking for the factory 4 slat grille which goes between the headlights, although would prefer if it has the chrome trimmed slats similar to the one below.

I know they come in black or silver from the factory, and am good with either one. Also doesn't matter if it has distronic or not.
