Question Fender Flares

My '01 Cherokee and I had a 'run in' with a fence a while back. I need a new rear driver side fender flare and the hardware/brackets. Finding the flare was easy but I can't seem to find anyone who sells the hardware and brackets for just one location. I've been checking ebay weekly since the incident.
Any help locating these items would be great. Thanks.

Only thing I could say is check your local junk yards and Craigslist.

Get the hardware off a donor XJ in your local junkyard.

Thanks for all the suggestions.

76ANTHONY - that link is great but it doesn't have the retainers for 2001 Jeeps

ok so i was bored and went out into the garage thinkin,hmmm i may be able to make these pieces for my flares and everyone breaks them so lets see what i can do. so i got a 1 inch by 12 in piece of old thin steel. i drilled the hole the same as the fender flare and put bolts through the steel and put a nut on the other side of the steel. then i just threw them behind the flare and viola, it works just fine. so i dont need to buy anypretty simple if you have some old metal and bolts layin around the garage..

You can buy the bracket at www.4wdtrucks.com for cheap. Talk to Perry.
