At my dealer I was quoted $400.00.
How bad did you damage it?
It may be cheaper to fix.

The quote i got is:
865$ cnd + taxes (15%) = 995$ (this is for unpainted)
+250$ paint
+ 1.5 hours for removing broken skirt and installing the new one
final price close to 1500$ cnd

Wow all this for just 1 skirt :(

Goes back to how bad is it. Maybe worth trying to fix it yourself and if you don't like it than get one. You could try not matching body colour by using plastidip black. Could also try a wrecking yard for parts.

Picture? But as I said if it was me there is nothing to loose in trying to fix it if all the shops are saying they will simply replace it. Bondo, some sand paper and some patience if should look like new. To paint match it you could get the shop top paint it or try it yourself.

It is unpainted and uninstalled.
Maybe the difference is the shipping and import duty.

For $100.00 I would take a road trip to the US, pop it on and drive back.

You can get the correct glue from an auto body/paint supply store (about $60.00) and I have found a source for the clips.

Lol a 100$ road trip, more like a 7 days road trip. I live in Qu?bec Canada, the best thing will be to ship to postal box near vermont border.
but like people said i will try to fix it myself.

Mind sharing your source for the clips? I also hit a chunk of ice this winter and the skirt is just a bit loose. Luckily the skirt is intact and not damaged. I live close to ST_Boy so I can sympathize with his situation, winters here are nasty.

It is funny that you cannot buy the clips from Ford.
They want you to buy the complete molding.

I found a clip that is listed for a GM car that works perfectly.
It is a Dorman part, available at most auto parts stores (or online).
#963-203 or 457901BP
These are the same part, why the two numbers I do not know.
