Ok, for some reason my passenger side fender liner got caught in the right front wheel, and the whole thing ended up being torn off and run over by myself as I was driving on the highway :rofl: But I am glad it didn't take the whole front bumper with it.
I called a few dealers in the area (SF Bay), and guess how much they want for it? $108 to $150 a piece! and the clips are $4 each! WTF! Aren't they just plastics? Or they actually have little tiny pieces of gold embedded in them?!
Anyway, looking for passenger side front fender liner and driver side as well if available. Thanks!
This is the best price you will find for new parts:

Looks like $64 for the liner and a few bucks for the retainers. It's up to you to decide exactly what you need. Maybe you still have the retainers. The little black plastic clips are $0.69 each.
Anyway, I love that site. I have ordered from them 4 times to get obscure parts for which the dealer charges a ridiculous amount: clips, brackets, screws, bolts, etc. It sometimes takes them a few days or a week to order the parts for you, but the price is right and they always have good service.
Guess your alternative is to look for a local salvage yard or something. Those kind of plastic parts are usually still attached after an accident.

is your warranty up or something?
i had a problem like this where my driver side inner fender came off on the inter-state because my dealership didn't reaattch it right after installing my cai. course my tc was just a baby back then, and it was 100% within warranty.

I have an 05 w/ a little under 40k miles on it. So is my warranty up? Sorry for the dump question. :P
