I'd think there are quite a few of them around in Scandinavia.

They have 2 different bumpers, one version on 2004-2006 models, then a facelifted bumper from 2007 onwards.

I'm not sure, but the actual grille opening might be the same on both - it looks nearly the same, even though the central part of the bumper sticks out on the facelift (originally, it was flat).

Basicly I can make one from picture and then you need to give the max width you want the block to be, but with your car I can test asseble it to some car before sending. Price is 50€ + shipping to and it includes both covers. Depending on the car upper block might come inside the bumber if it is very curvy etc.

On some models you might need to put something behind the cover to get nice and clean finish. You can make it even flush with bumber but takes little bit of more work.
