What is this part & wher can I get one?

Hey guys I need the plastic cover that goes here, not sure why but my car never had one. What is this piece called? Thanks in advance. Looking to buy one, but must be in great shape.

You'll need a carbed version, because of the after market air/filter. It's a Filler Front Fascia (or BAFFLE, Rad Air Upr). GM 14019578.

Looks like this for the carbed application.
Thanks James, I didn't think GM even had a listing for it. (I need one too)

Hey that photo looks familiar! Haha

I bought mine from moderndaymuscle.com but I don't think they have them anymore because I didn't find any when I was looking for my dads car. I ended up finding one at ThirdGen Ranch (a sponsor here).

Re: What is this part & wher can I get one?

Hi again folks and thanks for the prompt responses. The photo I used is not of my car and I apologize for that ,I just did a google search. In any case my car is a carbed 355 and doesn't have the aftermarket air filter. I looked at modern day muscle and they do not carry it anymore. Any other ideas where to find one?

The bone yards would be full of them. You might put an advert in the site's classifieds.

Re: What is this part & wher can I get one?

I have one in mint condition in the garage, was going to use it for my camaro but I no longer have a hood latch and didn't realize the hole would be there. Think I paid $30 for it a long time ago.

Yeah that would be a great idea. What material would you recommend using? I am going to look around and see what I can find. Thanks JamesC I will see what the scrap yards have available. The nearest one is almost 100 miles.....damn

The piece may well be discontinued, but have you tried your dealership (have them do a search)?

Hey James, I am searching online dealerships and coming up empty so far. I will call my local dealership in an hour or so. Thanks for your help. If you see one in your travels please let me know, thanks
