Need help finding a Grille Guard - Boston kills SAABs

Help! Samantha, my venerable old 900, has been hit three times in the past week by reckless parallel parkers. For those of you who are not from Boston, I can testify that the parking procedure here (for non SAAB drivers) is to ram the car behind you while backing up.
Now the bumper is 22 years old, so I'm not worried about a little scratch or a ding, but this year I have had to replace a grille, a headlight, headlight bucket, and have sustained a tiny dent to the steel on the front of the hood. By the way I live in a nice part of town, drivers are just out of control.
Can anyone recommend a "grille guard" that fits my car? And a place to buy it? Or a custom shop near Boston that would fabricate something. I know I have seen old photos with light bars on SAABs doing the Dakar race. I would prefer a bolt on product, that does not require permenant disfigurement/drilling/bumper removal.
Thanks in advance.
