I replaced my carpeted plywood wheel skirts on my trailer with plastic from MM

Poly Fab Plastics sold me what I needed at a great price and fast shipping. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/thumbsup2.gif

Tires were rubbing on the warped plywood fender skirts... I replaced them with plastic.

Great idea! So did you or are you going to carpet them? If not, do you think the plastic will leave black scuffs on your boat?

Gonna trim off the excess material?

No carpet, It's not supposed to mark up the boat. I left it just a touch higher than the carpeted wood that was on there. The carpet was worn off the top of my wood ones from the boat drifting over the fenders. I do not want my boat hitting the SS fenders.

Cool! http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/thumbsup2.gif

Let us know how it holds up. That definitely looks like a worry free modification.

Mike I'm thinking of doing the same thing only draw back I could think of was the sun and heat warping the plastic. May wanna put a couple of extra fasteners on there. Let me know whether it warps this summer.

Worked great today. I launched and loaded near 10 times testing props and bumped the plastic many times w/o any marks. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/thumbsup2.gif

Mike great idea. Boat looks super http://www.bassboatcentral.com/boardstuff2/beers.gif

how much $$ i have been thinking of doing something similar, This might be better.

$36 shipped to my door. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/thumbsup2.gif Saved me from buying wood, wood protector, carpet and carpet glue. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/smile.gif

That's a great idea. I really need to replace the backer on my tandems, just might have to try this.

Were they pre-cut or did you have to cut them to fit your fender?

Thanks!
Willie

They will cut them to your requested size for a cost. It was easy for me to do them myself and save some money. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/thumbsup2.gif

I'll be calling for some to tomorrow! One of mine started having issues this weekend.

Ordered today!
