I just noticed the left side of the snowflap support on my Skinz rear bumper is cracked. I have a bolt with washers spanning the snow flap and bumper as a temp fix.

What do you recommend I do to reinforce the snow flap? I'm thinking a 1" piece of aluminum on the top bolted to the bumper and then bolted all along the top of the snow flap bracket?

Or do I take it in and just get it re-welded an get them to weld in some reinforcement?

I'd give Skinz a call, their customer service is excellent.
 
Took it to my local welder. Having them grind off the old welds and welding it back on and adding some additional brackets. $75 all in.
