Its a welded component. You will likely not find a used one that is usable. Dealer offers cheaper aftermarket substitutes for body parts. I dont know if a radiator support is one of those parts but you could give it a shot.

Over here where I live there are body parts stores that sell aftermarket factory replacement body parts like Frontier and Certi-fit. Look in the Yellow Pages and call around. Or ask someone at a body shop where they get their parts. Usually, the smaller shops use aftermarket parts rather than original since they are much cheaper. The quality is pretty good, depending on manufacturer, but they use sheet metal that’s a little thinner than stock. I don’t think that’s a big problem with radiator supports though.

And yeah, the link in the post above is great. Just stay close to your area in your search cause shipping is a killer. It is possible to find used radiator supports. They are spot welded, so if the junk yard people drill the spot welds nice, like they are supposed to, they come off clean.
