Trunk star replacement

Hope this is the right place to ask...
I managed to break my trunk star by opening the roof while parked too close to my grill. I also ruined my good old Weber. Not a good day...

Now I found a perfect DIY tutorial on this forum how to replace the trunk star for an R171 on this forum.
The problem is, I can't find a trunk star...

Can anybody help me find a trunk star (preferably standard metallic) that ships to Belgium?

If none can be found, any suggestions on what to do? Perhaps I can glue on a Beemer logo >:D

You should be able to order these from any Mercedes main dealer.

I just got one from Ebay, it was like $15 and looks great. Mine had a Kleemann emblem on it and I didn't like it so I put the MB one back on.
