Anybody with any thoughts on how to fix this …a tire on the highway came off a trailer and ran right into right side of CT. Made insurance claim then realized it’s all plastic underneath , with push pins that came off and trying to do myself … see damage below

any thought greatly appreciated and maybe on cost the of r wheel fairing?? that came offf and the underside plastic center piece it connects to , don’t know the name of it, but plastic portion that clips into place along plastic center undercarriage also broke off….that connects to R wheel fairings ..damaged

I was able to get new push pins and hold these pieces up in place so cosmetically looks better but still has some damage? Any thoughts greatly appreciated

Below is the damage before and after I attempted to fix it ..looks cosmetically better but some bolts came off on the wheel fairing and center plastic part ( I don’t know the name ) but it’s All plastic , thoughts on how to fix this the fix I did cosmetically looks better but very loose , thoughts and recs appreciated

last 2 pics are after I tried to fix it my self thanks guys any thoughts appreciated


below are also the pics after I used push pins to push it but it’s not holding like original

Somehow I broke off the drivers side front wheel “fairing”. I assume that its purpose is to deflect air around the tire to reduce air drag. I could not find it in this “fairing” in the Tesla parts catalog. This seems like one of this few things I could do myself on this Cybertruck. Can anyone point me to where to purchase an online Tesla OEM replacement part.
Tesla service is coming to my house to replace the “fairing” on Monday for $125.

Rear is part of rocker (note, you don't need to fully remove rear wheel trim, and front wheel trim and hidden bolt can stay untouched)
