Replacement Body Side Molding

On my road trip yesterday I had the unfortunate luck of flying debris on the freeway. There was a relatively flat sheet of metal probably about 1' in diameter being flung around on the road and it was right in front of me. I had no space to dodge it so I had to go over it. When I did, it picked up off the ground after my front tire went over it and then gouged out a 1.5' hole in my sideskirt (the stock one). Does anyone know where I can find a replacement for a reasonable price? The dealer in Bellevue has a pre-painted one for $143 which isn't too bad, but cheaper would be better. Here are some pics of the damage:

I thought about that, but it would be hard for the city to be responsible for all flying debris because they can't keep track of it. The city is only able to pay for things such as potholes or other things that might cause damage. I can only make the person who dropped it pay for it, but I have no clue where it came from.

Damn I just threw out my old side skirts when I installed the OEM kit. It was Satin Silver color as well.
Maybe someone else out there has a spare out there. If not, check scrap yard as well, maybe will be in luck with your color.

Post in the Black Market. Guaranteed you'll find someone with a body kit selling their stock side skirts.
