Chunk of tire 1, E55 mesh grill 0

Cruising down the highway, an 18 wheeler kicked up a chunk of tire that whacked my right mesh grill area. Where would be the best place to pick up a clip and mesh grill?
Thanks in advance,
Warren

Similar situation happened to me back in the day to my W211 E55- I had a friend who could get wholesale pricing and went to the dealer... I dont know anywhere else.

oediscountparts.come for a nice shipped quote.

Sorry to see, lost a windshield and passenger side glass due to a tire from the same. Oh well. At least it was in my 2011 Chrysler and not the AMG.

This just happened to me a week ago. Took out a fog light and center mesh cover.. I feel your anger!! You can get you clips from the dealer they are cheap. If not eBay has 24 clips for $12.

Thank you everyone for your help.
The link is the best price I could find. I called and tried to see if it was in stock but just got a voice mail.
Luckily a member had one laying around and sold me a used one at a decent price before the company called me back.
