Default I need to find a part for my car, inner wheel well plastic, long story haha!

Ok so this weekend I put in lights for my vents, and apparently didnt screw in the wheel well plastic on the drivers side well and I was on the highway and off it came, and scared the $#*^ out of me as well. I did find the piece in the road, but its thrashed. Does anyone know where or how I can get this part?!?! its the piece that goes all that way from the front of the wheel well, to the back of the wheel well. I need it asap, I dont want to leave this thing off, especially with the new england weather coming! I know there is always the dealewr, but they're so expensive I want to make that my last resort.

PLEASE PLEASE HELP!

Yea you don't absolutely need it. Only thing I can see that it would stiffen up the front bumper.

You definitely NEED the liner in New England before the winter sets in. It helps insulate and keeps water out of areas it's not supposed to be in. It does not stiffen the front bumper, however. You will need to make sure that you get all of the attaching parts that probably came off when the liner made it's exit. If you decide to go to a dealer, we can help with 25% discounts on the necessary parts. You can email parts@trdsparks.com and Tim can give you pricing or you can check it out in our OEM Catalog on the right side of our home page at www.trdsparks.com I hope that helps and please let us know if you have any questions.

It's a fender liner which also extends somewhat into the engine bay, without it, the engine bay will get dirtier quickly.

All I said is you don't need it. I don't have it on my car. My engine bay is not that dirty at all. Just normal dirty. The only problem is the front bumper wiggles ore, but I am fixing that.

Thanks guys, you're the best resource I could ask for.

In my opinion, in New England, the liner is a necesity. If I was in the south where snow and what not wasnt an issue, I dont think I'd worry about it, but I dont want to be shoveling snow out of my engine bay in a month haha.

Thanks again guys, should be getting it this week.
