Do you mean the vertical strip in the center of the grille?  If so, I may have that; I will check Monday.  Jon

For some odd reason, the vertical piece has been hard to find for a while now. I bought one for the W111 coupe many years ago and haven't found one since. The vertical piece is a bit wider than the horizontal pieces. Given the ease of manufacture, I would assume it will come back at some point.

How about this e-bay listing. Looks to have assorted pieces for 108/111. He does not have part numbers but worth a look.
