2013+ Lincoln MKS grilles?

Are there any options for something like a wire mesh grille for the Lincoln MKS?  The grilles are on of the things I don't really care for on the MKS.  The vertical bars are just kinda... meh.  I haven't been able to find anything.  I'd like to find some high quality wire mesh pieces similar to the Cadillac CTS-V.  Or heck even using the mesh pattern that the 2017 MKZ uses, or the same mesh from the SHO.  Anything really.  Thanks in advance.

Maybe T-Rex makes some for the 2013+?  Painting the OEM grille is a nice option too, look at what fellow forum member TSS has ...
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Thanks for the input.  I checked out T-Rex and they don't carry anything for the MKS.  They DO carry uncut mesh sheets though... pretty much exactly what I am looking for, but requires some minor fabricating on the customer's end.  I bet you could actually use the factory grilles for an MKS and just cut the vertical bars out, and then cut to fit some of the mesh sheets... http://trexbillet.com/i-20468330-t-rex-all-most-vehicles-stainless-steel-wire-mesh-flat-black-12x40-mesh-size-3-squares-per-inch-pt-51009.html

Went to look up the original Lincoln grills.  They are like $300 PER SIDE...  If I can find some for cheap I might try this out.  I'd rather not destroy the ones on my car as part of the learning process lol.  Since they are the same as the base model MKS, I bet I could find something at a salvage yard or something.
