small plastic part needed, outside trim

I need help identifying this small part, so I can order one. Must have flew off car at high speeds. 2011 Carrera 4s. The black plastic between the windshield and the hood. There are two small square (appr. 2 inches) caps that fit near the end of each side. One side cap must have flew off. Anyone know what the plastic trim, or the caps is called?

looks like the plastic trim is called the 'cowl', and I may have to buy a whole cowl just to get the little cap (???)

You can buy the cowl end pieces alone for about $5 each, I've done it in the past from Suncoast. Shipping will likely be more than the piece itself. If your cowl is sun faded you can replace that too (about $125), or use one of the many black plastic trim restoration products every few months. You can find them in the car wax section of your local auto parts store (ie. Meguiar's Black Plastic Restore).

edit: Looks like some of the online parts diagrams are not showing just the cowl end caps. As barncobob says Autoatlanta is showing it though: http://www.autoatlanta.com/porsche-p...section=813-20
