door step piece aluminum thing, where to find one?

I just noticed this thing is missing from the driver side of my 8. And this one recently came off. Anyone have a good link for somewhere to order one? Thanks. Here's a pic of it: http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y297/bwjones/Thing.jpg

They might have fixed this problem in later model years, but I know it happened with a lot of '04's. This post might be useful:

Hello, this is somewhat related, but how do I find a piece of aluminum and/or anything else to cover the plastic door sill right above the alumunium piece that you have pictured? My big feet are already hammering the plastic and I've barely owned the car for several weeks! There must be something that we can cover up with. thanks for the help. cheers
