Default 2007 Gear stick surround

Hello all,
I recently purchased a 2007 XKR which needs a little TLC. I have found most parts online, but there is a chunk out of the gear stick surround. Does anyone know where I can find a part number for this please? I have managed to find the part number for the whole gear selector - 6W83-7K004-CC , but I only need the black trim with the letters on. Any help appreciated.

Any recommendation for parts supplier in the UK appreciated also.

You can only purchase the entire assembly, the individual pieces aren't available separately. Pretty common problem, FYI.

Post # 5 provides a better solution, a 3D printer could never do that. Next best solution would be a vinyl overlay.

I ordered the SolarSigna cover plate a while back. A well done piece of machining, and packaged with formed plastic blocks to maintain the curves. The owner Malcolm is very nice and helped me track it down when the USPS was showing off their general incompetence. I do have to admit I've not put it on yet, since the shift knob is very firmly attached and I didn't want to twist too hard or risk damage to the chrome of the shift lever using vice grips. I'll take the time to figure it someday...

I also bought the Solar Signa cover, it’s very nice. The gear shift handle is held on with lock tight. I used 2 hands to spin it off.
