Mass Air Boot Cracked

Mass Air Boot Cracked
Afternoon everyone!
Just got my XJ back from the shop with the following notes.
1. Mass air intake boot cracked due to rubber being very hard, not allowing a good seal on the throttle body (note, throttle body replaced last year, a little surprised the boot would be bad already)
2. Air filter housing cover missing clip.
About $800 parts and labor for these two items.
Also, the splash guard is shot. $340 for the part + labor. I know there are folks driving around without them but I'm not too keen on that.
I think these are easy enough to replace myself, so I politely declined the repair.
Having a little trouble finding the parts though.
Anyone know where to source these items for a good price? Couldn't find them on RockAuto or Autohausaz for the X350.
Also, would anyone recommend going used on these to save a buck?
Thanks as always!
Nate

If you have part numbers, do give our forum sponsors a chance to get you a good price on them.
