Default Rubi transfer case front cover broke, replaceable?

Ordered a rubi case from a salvage yard and the guy told me one of the covers was busted but I could just swap it off mine and he'd wave the core charge. Easy enough... Except the cover isn't there on a non rubi case. Anyone know how to order just that cover? (Outside the dealer hopefully?)

Just a thought and don't want to be judgmental but....If the case is busted and sitting in a scrap yard...are you sure nothing else is wrong with that one? Sure the price may be good and you can probably get a replacement cover or two but what forces broke it in the first place.
If you aren't horny to get one today you might want to wait for a non damaged item or look into an entry level Atlas t-case which would be my choice if my Rubi case croaks. Just saying...

Yeah I kinda considered waiting on another but I have this one now and a warranty to send it back if it has any issues. All the internals seen solid tho. I got a case from the dealer and now I just have to figure out how it breaks down.
