Rear fender repair

[89Hokie]

Had a deer hit and almost tore oem fender off our '21 High Altitude. Amazingly it looks like I only need the inner fender liner and one of the honeycomb looking support brackets under the front of the flare. Is this something that can be ordered separately?

The liner, yes.

Everything attached to the flare, comes only with a new flare.

Not sure what is broken in the honeycomb part. Could it be repaired by plastic welding?

Unfortunately it broke completely out and couldn't be found. Since the finish on the flare itself was fine I ended up making a support from a piece of aluminum bar.

Seems to be working fine. Unpainted Flare was well over $700, plus painting.

Crap, I should be more careful with mine. Caught it on a tree root once then had a downed tree roll and kick into it. Both on trails.

Would by chance have some pictures of what you fabbed for a bracket?

sorry for the long delay.
The inner liner / wheel opening trim complete separated from the painted fender flare. I just wanted to keep the lower front of the liner/trim inside the flare from vibrating, so I cut a piece of 2" wide 1/8" aluminum bar and bent it slightly so it pushes the liner into the flare. I bolted into a couple of holes where the white plastic clips went.

So far so good!
