Need creative replacement of splash guard

I'm trying to come up with a creative way to replace the splash guard in the right front wheel well of my 94 4runner (the rubber piece you remove to access the starter, not the metal piece). The stealership will happily sell me a new one for $80(!!) but I'm not willing to pay that. I've been to the local junk yards but all of the splash guards I've found are torn or missing. It would be easy enough to make one if I had the right material but I haven't been able to find it so far. Any ideas?

go to a place that sells lift lips, these replace stock on trucks that have had body lifts


Or put a listing in wanted, peeps take these off when replacing with lift lips. I probably had a set find their way into the trash.

Try looking for something like a pond liner at the hardware store.
