Default 1989 Dakota inner fender / splash shield

Having a difficult time online trying to find a drivers side inner fender / splash shield for 1987-1996 Dakota.
Any ideas?

Unless you find a set in the boneyard, there's not much else currently.

There's a few folks that have thought about remaking them and mentioned possible substitutes; but no follow through that I've heard of, alas.

I also need a set of 2WD splash shields for my 1988 Dakota.

Thanks Ralph. That’s the direction it’s going, but I was hoping to find leads for available parts before scouring junkyards. If I find anything, I’ll keep you in mind and forward the info.

I actually used plastic inners from a second gen truck on my first gen. They are super close in size. I had to make some custom brackets for the battery and such, but it fits and keeps the water out.
