R8 V10 Grill Replacement Options

Ever since Audi made their design changes going from the V8 to the V10, the only disappointment in my book was going to the chromed front grill. Does anyone know any aftermarket grill options that are all black? I know some vendors are on this forum. I will change mine out in a heartbeat if I can find one. I've gone on-line and have not been successful in finding anything.

why don`t you paint it all black?

PPI automotive design is offering a carbon grill in glossy or matte.

Don't want to paint it, since it's not color through and chipping would show silver flecks. However, thanks for the heads up on PPI. After a lot of searching I've also found another vendor.
