    You can't get new covers, they don't make them anymore. It's way past the 7-8 year mark that GM has to continue making factory parts for these cars.

    Finding a new used one from someone else is possible though.

    I believe part of the last "engine fire" recall where they replaced the front valve cover gasket also called for removal of that engine cover. At this point good luck finding one in a junkyard

    How many would you like? Junkyards in this area still have 3800's and that's a standard NA engine cover.

    You can get S3 covers off lucernes and cars like that.

    Why? I pulled mine off. If it wasn't 1000 miles away in a storage unit, I'd gladly sell it to you for cheap. It's been off for most of the eight or nine months I've had the car and I've had zero issues driving without it.
