I've looked for them for years every once in a while when I get a bug up my rear about the road splash in the engine bay and I only have found them in junk yards. Id like new ones but it seems there is no aftermarket companies as all the used jyard parts are torn or cracked

I just pulled the old ones out and used them for a pattern and built new ones out of rubber that was the same thickness

I just picked.one up today from the local u-pull yard, although it isn't the greatest, I also got a set of power mirrors and a full hydroboost setup, all for $60!

Ive been looking for awhile for them also and had no luck, New or used. The used ones are either torn or they're so brittle they tear trying to get them out.

Where did you get the rubber sheeting from to make the copies?

I've done similar on other cars in the past, but they were much smaller and I was able to use thin mud flaps.

I'd look at grainger's or Mcmaster-carr for the rubber.

I have thrown quite a few of the away.
They've never served any practical purpose for ever having been there.

I've seen frames rotted out BECAUSE of them before.

I never understood why folks would remove them. I've gotten mine from junk yards but also made some from used conveyor belting.
