Replacement keyboard frame for Aspire E1-731-4699

Hi, all.
I did a brilliant thing and spilled some liquid into my keyboard. The keys are now pretty well good and sticking.
I have a genuine replacement on order, but this particular model doesn't seem to have the frame held on by screws, but by what seems to be melted plastic nubs. I can only assume that filing/cutting them off spells the end of this frame as far as usability (i.e. trying to repair as close to original spec as possible). This one has a small crack, anyway, so I'd prefer to replace with an OEM part.
I cannot seem to find anyplace that might carry the replacement keyboard frame for this model. I have no idea where I can turn. Any suggestions? Even more so from you Acerians at the "mother ship"?
Thank you all in advance.

The frame does have a sticker on it bearing the following information:
PN 13NO-VNP0402 REV. 1B
PB71305-1A TOP CASE KB FRAME
DATE: 02/27/2014 A
I don't understand why this is so hard to find.

In the original part, the frame is sold only with the keyboard.
For example:
60.MG8N5.004 - KEYBOARD US-INTERNATIONAL ENGLISH 103K WIN8 W/FRAME (with frame)
Could you post a picture of your frame?

I don't know the color of the part that I gave you.
Normal! I'm french
I'll come back tomorrow. See you later.

The first part number is for US, which is where I am. 103 keys is accurate.
Now all I have to do is find someplace that sells this.
