fender liners from scratch?

Post by Praesepe559 » Fri Jan 27, 2006 1:17 am

Im looking for some sort of material I can use to make fender liners that will actually match up with the body kit and be a little smoother. I have taken one of my liners into like 5 stores, a body shop, upholstry shop.. and nobody can think of where i can pick up a similar material to work with, any ideas???

Ive seen ppl use diamond-plate. Like the stuff they make tool boxes for trucks and some floor mats with. It was a little flashy but they had it chromed and it worked nicely on a slammed show car.

hmm.. not going for that flashy of a look lol. What i want is pretty much whatever the stock ones are made out of.. but if i cant get a hold of that i would lean more toward a plastic material than a rubber one. still stumped on this one..
