A/C condenser woes

Hello all,
My A/C condenser has a hole in it from rock or road debris. I am not able to find a new part yet other than the dealer for over 500 bucks. Does anyone know of a different supplier for this part. I am also going to buy and install the shield that GM is making for the condenser. I found that Parts America which is part of Advanced Auto Parts had the part listed on their website for 100 bucks. When I ordered the part though I got an email from them a few days later saying that this part is not available. Any help would be appreciated. THanks

Are you still under warranty? There is a TSB out on this. Read this thread:

Get yourself a lower billet grille too! Protects that area and looks great too! Installed a "Carriage Works" lower grille on our about 2 years ago. I love it!!
