Default what's this called, and where can I buy it?

Hail damaged some plastic on my car this past spring. Does anyone know what this part under the wipers is called? and where can I buy a new piece? Thanks a bunch.

Its the Wiper Cowl. Don't know where you would find one. They tend to get brittle and brake over time. So its hard to find a good one at a junk yard. Good luck...

I think you can get it out of Latemodel Restoration (I can't remember for sure), but I thought I saw one there for sale.

It's expensive, but they have one. Otherwise check the junkyard or Craigslist for local part-outs.

Awesome. thanks to both of you for helping. That sure does seem kinda expensive. I may try heat molding something into that place just to see if it becomes less noticeable. Thanks again for finding it.

Those parts are a dime a dozen. Also check out junkyard dog.com

Try Rockauto.com, they should have them cheaper than most places.
