So stupid me left the little door that you access the foglight / headlight bulb open the last time I changed it and it got ripped off by the tire. Anyone have a good idea on how to cover the hole? I am guessing a new one calls for a fully new fender liner since its attached at the top.

Get some black duct tape.
I tore my door off too because I didnt fold it back in. I drilled a hole in the top of the door and also in the fender well. reattached it with
an aluminum rivet on a hinge.
I would just use the duct tape idea. All that door does is allow access to the lights like you stated so as long as you block dirt and debris from getting in there it will be fine.

My concern with duct tape is that it would get wet and fall off. Duct tape isnt expensive, but the door keep water from getting in.
If you go thru a large puddle of water, would it get in the filter? Could it?
Do you want to patch a hole in a 30-40,000 vehicle with duct tape?
problem is I was on the freeway when I heard it rubbing and before I could exit it tore off. Duct tape might be my only way out.

Mine broke when I upgraded the fogs to HID. I used thin aluminum and pop rivets. I used small hinges at the top, and hold the new covers shut with screws. I can remove the screws and hinge the door open for access.

I noticed that when i purchased my 08 XK a few months ago, that it was missing the top Light Covers (Under the Hood) on both sides. Does anyone know where i can get a used set? But I think i read someplace that the 08's did not come with those Headlight Covers. Is this possible or true.. Thanks Steve..
My Commander didn't come with them. I ended up have to replace the drives side head light after a wheeling incident where my brother hooked up a tow strap with hooks on it and the strap broke and hook went through my head light. I ordered a new one online and it came with the cover. So I have one with and one without. Jeep my have been pinching penny's when they built mine
