Not that I've seen yet
Badass! Duplicolor universal black is your friend. I scored an un-ripped lightly faded black bumper cover today, neener neener!
Lol yes, I plan hope to buy some soon and touch up a little, however most of the paint you see on the bumber is walmart .93 cent black paint. That stuff matches nearly perfect! I have to touch it up every month or so because it fades and chips so easy. Anyhow the hood works perfect, no issues at all.. and nice job on the score, lol
When I got my car the front bumper was a bit of a wreck... almost all the paint was chipped off, the Pontiac emblem was gone, and the license plate filler panel was gone.. little by little I atempted to improve, lol

i was thinking the same thing junk . it's not just the price, it's the price PLUS shipping , which is most likely well over a hunerd bones. screw that. it's not even carbon fiber.
I too hope everything turns out nice, lol. I think I got a pretty fair deal. Anyhow I went ahead and worked with the front end a little bit tonight, I temporarily fixed the headlight and it looks decent. The metal bracket that the headlight sits in is a little bent out of shape, I was wondering if that part is easily replaceable? Also does anyone know the name of the plastic piece behind the grille, the upper part of the bumper clips to it? Mine is all screwed and it's making the bumper sit out a little too far. Thanks for all the help!
Well good news, I found the plastic piece I was looking for! It is GM part number 10433271 and it goes by "grille mounting panel" or "front bumper fascia support" Unfortunately they are right about $50. That's not a huge deal, especially brand new, but I think I'll be calling the local salvage yard again, lol. Also another stupid question while I'm not here. Does anyone know where I can find those little round push in things for the door panels? My car has been missing most of them since I bought it and I'd really like to replace them.
If you're talking about the caps for the armrest screws... junkyard or GM. Yours might still be in place though, the upholstery comes unglued there so get a flashlight and check in past the vinyl. That wind blowing on your left hand and knee IS annoying in winter lol.
The plastic drive rivet type clips... also JY... or some parts stores (look for one that sells paint, they may have bags of 20 or 50 instead of the three packs or whatever you might find carded on a peg). Possibly also, local auto body supply stores often have a variety.
get those from amazon...i bought a bag of 25 for less than they want for 3 at advanced auto.

By Kevin Rosenquist on December 7, 2013 Verified Purchase After 2 speaker installs my car door panels were all barely hanging onto my 98 Pontiac Grand Prix.
I looked everywhere for these at the brick and mortar auto stores. I could only find 3 at time if they had them and they were expensive.
These fit the bill and I had enough to fully replace 2 front doors with extras to selectively replace worn clips on the rear doors.

You are very likely to need these if you repair your power window regulator for a 1998 - 2003 Pontiac Grand PrixBySandy Barushakon January 28, 2015

They fit the door panels on my 2002 Gran Prix and so far work as expected. They are longer than the OEM part but were not a problem. Would buy them again if needed.

Thanks for the help with those, I will be needing them in the future as well, however I was refering to the push in screw hole covers.
oh ......never looked that closely at my door....i may need some too..lol
a trip to a bone yard should net you a few. since they fit in your pocket they're free
Yep thats them.. wow they're expensive, lol. I don't actually don't have a pull it yard around here.. which sucks ass!! The nearest one is like 2 hours away.. however I know the guys at one of my local salvage yards pretty well and he may just give them to me.
Similar situation here.
Can someone tell me if the front end of a 1998 will work on a 2001 or 2002?
need fascia, pad, bar, wheel well cover thingy, headlight assembly and bracket. And hood.
thanks
