Thread: Wrecked my GP Friday!

is there a company or manufacturers name on the hood ?

I had seen that page before, also. Never paid attention to the top line with no pic, flat hoods. Looks like you got lucky. Bonus! It would be worth having one at salvage price but at the prices on that page, a guy would have to want one awful bad. Hope it works / fits / buffs up nice / matches, so you can take the bargain and run!

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'd start by calling it a grille support. Some might call it a header something. That metal part, no unless you weld. Bend it back, the top part isn't terribly critical. The critical spot I found to avoid bouncy lamp is the square metal tab that points forward right behind where headlight ends and signal lamp begins. Some have a rubber bumper there that if missing will bounce the lamp. Also the hook on the back of the mount panel breaks off, and that goes through the square hole next to that tab and really secures everything. Be aware not all salvage lamps are created equal, several types exist so eyeball it if you can before purchase. Aftermarket is everywhere and some of it sucks. There can be differences where the bulb goes in, and lenses differ. Salvage price for headlights is dang near new price.
I've had decent luck plastic welding the headlight panel but replacements are too cheap to spend any time there.

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.

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.

get those from amazon...i bought a bag of 25 for less than they want for 3 at advanced auto.

If you get those door trim panel clips, theres a couple on the top row you might need to trim to avoid contact with the window glass. The originals are like half that length. But the clips are otherwise great.

yeah i'm still riding em around in my trunk..lol.. but some people in the reviews say they had to shorten some. there is reviews from GP drivers that say they work so thats why i got them.

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 Prix

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.

need fascia, pad, bar, wheel well cover thingy, headlight assembly and bracket. And hood.

thanks

Yes, it should if both cars are GT or GTP. Some impact bars are welded on. SE fascia and thingy is different in early years. Thats all I know of, to watch out for.
