Mine was in good shape but is starting to show the 17 years of sun and bug hits so I've been searching for a new one. If anyone is looking for one of these, you know they have been discontinued and are very hard to find. I finally found it at PAE in El Paso, TX (915) 855-6009 Their website www.paeenterprises.com Now, if I could just find that "Buick" emblem for the trunk lid.

Thanks Myron,

I did try them - and they did send me a part that had "Buick" on it - but it was the wrong part. Didn't look like the original so I had to return it for credit as they couldn't come up with the right one.

Thanks Jay, I agree Kirban has tons of stuff and are great to deal with. I've bought a lot of parts from them already but they don't have the "Buick" emblem for the trunk lid. Still looking.

Try this site:
http://www.espperformance.com/replacement_parts.htm

It's part# REP022 - "BUICK" EMBLEM ON REAR DECK DECK LID
$20.50

Order by Telephone: (610) 970-8944


Here's something else i found in case you need placement help:

"The “BUICK” emblem goes on the right side of the trunk lid and measures up the same as the other emblem 1 1/4 inches from the top of the trunk moulding and the “K” in “BUICK” ends up 3 1/4 inches from the right edge of the trunk lid."

Maybe give them a shot..

Great link Jay! They do have that emblem listed along with the T-Type grille emblem. I noticed a few other things that I "need." Thanks again.

Just an update, they do not have the Buick emblem (and a lot of other parts listed.) Web site wasn't updated.
