I am told that these are made of unobtanium, but one can dream.  

Like many before me, I am looking for parts labeled #79 and #89 in the attached image, but for the Passenger Side.  However, given that the wheelhouse extension has all of the structural integrity of a dried leaf, if you find a good drivers' side piece I'll buy it and put it aside for later.

Yeah, I need the '79' part for both sides of mine.

At this point, I think I"m just going to try to make something out of thin sheet metal. Cannot find them anywhere.

Good luck!

Make a mold, and make fiberglass copies. They are made of unobtainium.

That is why they call it splody plastic.

I took one that was in several pieces on the passenger side and reassembled it like a 3D jigsaw puzzle using cyanoacrylate (Crazy) glue.  Then I coated it with mesh tape and epoxy, and finished it off with two coats of black Flex Seal.  It's much more robust than a new one. Lastly, I embedded metal washers in the epoxy at all the attachment points, as these inevitably crack during removal and reinstallation.  I did the same with a NOS unit for the one that was missing from the driver side of the car to keep it from self-destructing.

These parts are tucked up in a place where they can be quite ugly as long as they do the job of keeping mud, stones, and water inside the wheelhousing.  I would not bother replacing the original part without some reinforcement.  It's one stone away from being a pile of plastic shards.
