My engine ate the star off my engine cover.

Title pretty much sums it up, but the star somehow came off the front of the engine cover. I found the piece of mesh that was behind the star wedged above the washer fluid reservoir bent in multiple places and the star was nowhere to be found.

Anyone know where i can get a new front engine cover at a good price?

Also, anyone have issues with their 3rd brake light? Mine has been out for a while, need to find a good replacement but dealer is expensive and ebay isn't turning up anything.

I was wondering the same thing. My star and plaque are both missing.
