Grand Am 2001 Hubcaps & side mirrors help

I have plastic hubcaps on this car. Two are broken. I want to replace with something OTHER than plastic. Where can I purchase them and will they fit? The tire is size P215/R60/15. I found four aftermarket hubcaps 15 inch 118 series set for $38.95. It states it is for any standard 15 inch steel wheel. Would this work?

Problem #2, car side window mirrors are broken off. One was repaired, and now broke again. They are plastic. Any way to replace and look decent with something that is not broken off by walking by it.

Thanks. I like to order online. Let me know any ideas or things you know. I don't know much about vehicles except this one is "too" plastic.

Susan

If this size of the hub corrisponds with the wheel, then yes, the new hubs will work fine. I don't know of hubcap that is not plastic, then again, I haven't really done research on it. They probably do make some in aluminum.

Regarding your mirrors:

These can be fairy easy to replace. There should be a small black plastic triagle shaped piece on the inside of the door. With this piece removed, you will see the screws to remove the mirror. Surf the web for better replacements. Look for a pair that folds. Also, what are you doing to have the mirrors brake all the time?

You like to order on line? Start with jcwhitney.com. They have been around almost forever, and have enough after market parts to boggle the mind.
