Default Where can I find these?

I am not sure what this part is called so I don't know what to ask for. The best description I can come up with is "Front Suspension Shrouds" - they are torn and falling off my car and I would like to replace them. I also don't know where to look to purchase them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

They are A-arm dust shields, and you can find them by the dozen on eBay for under $20 - ad I'm sure many vendors carry them also.

I think I got mine for $16 at MidAmerica. Just did themthe other day, ripped'em messing withthe new shocks.

Have fun with those little POS push through plastic clips, they are a hoot !

I buy alot of little stuff from MidAmerica since they are "just down the street". I usually get stuff within a day or two...if I don't just drive up there.

Thanks for the information and the link to the eBay auction. I purchased them yesterday for $11.00 (plus $9.75 shipping which is excessive but shame on me, I didn't ask before I bid)
