eBay, Craig's List, etc. Also, car-part.com.

FYI, all 2003-2008 Vibes with steel wheels use the same wheel cover, which will greatly increase your chances of finding one.

Thanks. $80 seems to be the going rate for one in this style, at that rate I'm better off buying a generic four pack and replacing them all!

EXACTLY !!! :D If you don't mind the look of these, they are Chinese imitation Toyota Camry wheel covers. I think I paid less than $10 each and got a whole set. These are what I use for winter wheel covers while the original 18" GT rims are safely stored away. Good luck & let us know what you end up doing.

This is why I ended up just getting brand new OEM wheel covers for our winter wheels through GM a few years back. Used ones on eBay, etc were going for more than brand new ones. If I remember correctly, I ended up paying about $34.00 per wheel cover. Personally, I just can't stand the look of any aftermarket wheel covers. They all just look super cheesy to me. To each their own though.

FWIW, looks like the 03-08 / 09-10 1.8L ones are going for $59.36 on GMPartsCenter.net, before shipping.
