I know what you are looking for. I tried to find one for a while, but I gave up. I think the only way is to custom make one. You have to buy a universal chrome mesh grille kit that looks similar and cut it to size. The only change is the chrome border that "Strut" grilles have. There is a chrome one on ebay now, but it's really not the same. Might work for you though.

Thanks, guys. Here is a pic of what I'm trying to find... something along these lines... with the holes a little bit bigger and also the verticle center line piece....
If anyone happens to know of a company that makes grills modeled after the Bentley style, please let me know!
I've been looking but can't find one.

I'm guessing it's plastic with a chrom finish, right?
I'd like to find one that is actual metal.

FIG Grilles are metal 
Only advice I have for you other than every single person I've talked to at a ton of car shows say they hate the look of chrome grilles on the tC. (This includes some judges.)

ps - notice the first pic I attached... the lower center grill... it is "short" and has the vertical piece. I think it looks fine and I think the upper tC grill would also look fine with it. If I think it would look fine, that's all that matters.
