Suggestions on broken front replica grill

Hey guys!

My front m3 replica bumper has a broken grill. I didn't see it until well after it came back from the shop and it has gotten worse with time. The slots at the bottom that attach to the bumper are either missing or just broken.. So my bumper looks saggy and sad with the clips just out there. I can't seem to find anywhere online that will sell the grill separate from the set.

I was thinking that I could remove the bumper and drill it together maybe!? IDK!
PLEASE HELP

Pulling the bumper takes half an hour and you can probably pop the grille abck into place once you see what the damage really is

This is what I did with mine when a piece of retread whacked it, I thought for sure I'd need to replace it and all it took was sticking it back in place and you can't tell three's a piece of the honeycomb broken on it, have a new grille sitting in a cabinet doing nothing now

The grilles are definitely for sale online by themselves, if it takes an OEM M3 grille.

Doesn't look oem. Take it off and see if you can figure out a brand. Ecs and modfargains sells stuff like this.
