I had the same problem with my drivers side. The bottom edge kept coming loose and hanging down. Embarrassing when my friend pointed it out to me. The bottom piece is a force fit with rubber cone shaped studs that force fit in. Mine were smooth in shape as the previous owner must have hit something that tore it loose smoothing out the base of the cones so they no longer would hold in place.

It was an easy replacement that requires removing the wheel. One screw is underneath the rear wheel liner. Liner is not hard to loosen so you can gain access to the small screw at the top of the "canard" or air dam. I didn't break anything in the process so you know that mortals will have an easy job of it. Check out some of the discount houses as they are having specials and I believe you can do a lot better than $45.
