Default Radiator support and rivnuts

OK so I really screwed up and hit a curb. Where can I find the radiator support and rivnuts for a good price?

Oh and ac condenser is busted. I don't need ac so would it be fine to leave out?

OEM was about 450 plus and you had to buy the rive nuts. I purchased from jimbutlerchevrolet.com, 215 delivered, with nuts installed, had to be painted though. I was going back and forth on oem or aftermarket, glad I went with aftermarket, quality was same, fit perfect, saved money.
