I absolutely HATE missing pieces on my car, and fixed the final thing that was bugging me today, a missing cowl cap:

Yeah, I do that sometimes.

Sgtblue, like your statement on fat cops. I think fat cops are more likely to shoot you and save the embarassment of dailing 9-1-1 requesting extra oxygen if he have to chase you!

I've pulled handfuls of those covers off of 626's at the junkyard. Sometimes they won't work, they'll snap when you go to put them back on.

I believe I bought some new a while back, they weren't too pricey.

No, local dealership.
They've just moved into a brand new facility and I wanted to check it out anyhow.
The Service Manager there has been really great and he is a BIG fan of the FD.

Damn it, had I known you could still get them...and for less than $5, I wouldn't have stared at the hole left by the missing one for two months... waiting for the next time I had to go to the U-Pull-it lot. Oh well.
