98 GS engine cover?
Does the 98 GS have an engine cover? I recently went to have my car serviced and I washed my car the other day and noticed that my engine cover was not there!!!!! I could have sworn it had one before. If it does not let me know Please before I go to the shop and B*tch about it not being put back on.

I'm 95% sure the GS300 has one, the 98 GS400 definitely does.

victor, 98 GS3 does not come with an engine cover. I am not sure, but I believe they started putting the engine covers on the 01 models.
It would be funny if you go b!tch at the dealer though, maybe they'll give you one anyway

Make that 50% sure...
I could have sworn I've seen 98/99 GS3's with engine cover - maybe they added afterward?
I thought I saw one the classified section for sale - but now I can't even find that!
Got to stop drinking out of those aluminum cans...

I think that the 00 GS300 came with engine covers. I have a 99 which doesnt.

I've seen this in a few previous threads and the 98s do NOT have a cover. My 98 GS300 certainly do not have one.

The GS430 definately has a different engine cover than the GS400.
Was at the dealership yesterday looking.
Wow .. anyone see the sport edition GS 300?
Sharp interior. I like the seats, the carbon fiber interior hi-lites, as well as the different colored radio front...
