So... on a road trip at 3 a.m., going 80 mph on the interstate, I hit a possum. It got stuck in the wheel well between my tire and the protective barrier plastic piece that I am going to refer to as a wheel well guard. Well, the dead animal was finally flung out by the movement and speed of my tires but it shredded the wheel well guard so bad we could barely drive. My boyfriend pulled the car into a gas station, at 3 a.m., and simply took out the screws and pulled off the wheel well guard and threw it away. Now, my windshield washer fluid container as well as other components under the hood are exposed and I can not figure out how to get that replacement part for the life of me. There is no longer a pontiac dealership in my city and the guys at firestone complete auto care said they can't help me. Hopefully someone on here knows what I am talking about!!!!THIS WEBSITE IS THE ONLY ONE I COULD FIND WITH GOOD PART DIAGRAMS BUT KNOW I CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT THE ACTUAL NAME OF THE PART I NEED IS! http://www.gmpartsdistributor....gid=2

I think you are in need of the inner liner of the wheel well? You are looking for passenger side correct?2003-2008 Vibe?
