Default Damaged side skirt

Get this! I took my Z to get all the minor dents, dings, scrapes and cracks fixed by a local body shop guy this weekend. When I got home I was looking the car over and I notice that something had penetrated the front of my side skirt directly behind the time. The damage is locate directly flush to the tire at the front head of the side skirt and had completely riped and pushed in the front flap. I have no clue what to do to fix it. The plastic is riped/torn mid way and now I have a flap that is hanging and not connect from the middle all the way down to the bottom of the head of the side skirt. Will I need to buy a brand new skirt to fix this or is there anything out there that can fix this. Please help me out. Its a bummer that when I think my car is fixed cosmetically, something else occurs.

You really might want to consider showing a pic of the damage.

Finding skirts is rather easy and inexpensive so it makes a lot more sense to replace it than fixing it, even in the case of something minor.

Too bad this happened. Next time you take your car for any kind of service, do a walk over before leaving the place. That way you can trace any dammage to its source, making it easier to get them to fix it.
