No photo. But, it is shown on sheet 17.00, section 11 in the assembly manual. Basically, the bottom of the apron bolts to the top flange of the running board in two locations (I believe). The top rear of the apron bolts to the rear fender. The top front of the apron bolts to a brace/bracket that is bolted to the running board (step portion) with a carraige bolt.

Oops, you asked about the bracket. Bottom of bracket to running board with carraige bolt. Middle of bracket to splash apron at bottom edge flange with regular bolt/washers/nut. Top of bracket same as middle. Hope that helps.

Thanks, so there's a carriage bolt that goes through the running board to attach the bracket. I think I've got it.
