Does anyone know where I can find replcement center caps for a 2001 Grand Prix? OTHER THAN Ebay. I've already looked there & they don't have the one I need. Here's a picture of some wheels with the center caps http://www.hubcapnation.com/pontiac_grand_prix_wheels.htm
Let me know please if you know of any or have any. Thank you.

The wheels to the far right. The dealership didn't have them, we checked a couple of them & no one had them. No I don't want them for free.

There are 3 different wheels there. Which ones are yours? Are they not available at your local Pontiac dealer, or are you looking for something for free?
Update: Part # 9591343, your local dealer should be able to order them. But $25 each... ouch!

I would go with the GM brand gaskets. I use them & never had a problem with them ever. Also, when you do the lower intake gaskets, make sure you clean the areas. Use a brake/parts cleaner type spray & make sure the area is clean for the sealer. You will see it once you pull the lower intake off. You also will need a sealer for those areas. Some kits come with those side gaskets for the edges, I throw them away & just use good sealer. I use GM brand on that, any will do but has to be clean. Make sure to put some in the corner at the bottom of the LIM gasket The orange colored rust is nothing to worry about, the cap gets moisture from getting warm, then cooling down,etc,etc. That creates moisture, as long as the oil is clean. Also, when you do the LIMG, change the oil after your done. You know, your talking grease monkey up there is hot for females!!!!!!! You GO GIRL!!!!! Nothing wrong with you working on automobiles, but becareful with cheap parts!!!!!! They are cheap for a reason, they do not last. Also, to do the LIMG, you have to loosen the rocker arms & remove the pushrods. Get yourself a cardboard box about the size of a shoe box, show box will work too, turn it up side down. Put an arrow pointing one direction(CALL IT FRONT), put left on the left side & right on the right. When you remove those pushrods, put them in order where they go on the car. Same with rocker arms. The rocker arms isnt so critical but some of the pushrods may be different. Cant remember when they changed it to the were all the same size, yours may be the same size Also, get the torque spec for those rocker arms. GM does have issues with those getting stripped when tighten, tight them to specs on tthe torque to prevent them from stripping

I would check with Ed Morad. He deals with Grand Prix cars all the time, buying junk ones, dismantleing them, and selling the parts. You can email him at gtped@msn.com. He is great with these cars and should have exactly what you need. Just tell him what you need. His prices are always reasonable. Also, he does have a website at http://www.moradpartscompany.com/ You can try the parts request there. But I always just email him. Good Luck!

Try car-part.com. They can probably hook you up for a lot less money and they have access to salvage yards across the U.S. and Canada.

DID YOU TRY http://www.hubcapnation.com/pontiac_grand_prix_wheels.htm OR PONTIAC?
IT MIGHT BE EASIER TO REPLACE ALL FOUR.
