WTB: w123 front left/pass side metal bumper trim bracket
 
I'm looking for the bracket that holds the rubber trim around the side of the front bumper. It attaches to the fender below the bumper and below the headlight.

Looks like this.

Doesn't need to be perfect, but decent enough that I can sandblast it and powdercoat it.

Should we understand that the desired bracket is for an English spec car (RHD)?
You have identified it thus: "w123 front left/pass side".

Have several of these for North American bumpers in both sides.

Unfinished ones with surface rust will be cheaper and I also have a couple that have already been been sandblasted and sealed with epoxy primer.

From memory these are around $50-ish each so why would you tinker with used?

I plant to get it powdercoated or otherwise coat it myself to keep it from rusting again. If I'm already taking it down to bare metal the it doesn't really make sense to buy a new one.

I'm not going for an original look, just ensuring longevity after a major rust repair.

Here's my current one. Its got several holes in it as well.

I have at least one and several I sand-blasted and painted. But, I know no way to ship something that long from CA to DC for less than maybe $40.
