Automatic FlexPlate Covers are one-piece. No interchange.

My original was a plastic one as well, and it broke just as ChevyGuy's did eventually. Before that, it had broken it other places, but was still securely attached. I wanted another plastic one, but couldn't find one. Now I'm glad I found a metal one.
