Default Inner fender skirts?


Above is a picture of what I am calling inner fender skirts. Does anyone have any ideas as to what type of material to make these from? I could use the old ones as a pattern.... FWIW its the front of a 87 4wd dakota
Thanks

There is a place in my town out west that sells a lot of different rubber o ring products and fire hose, industrial hose, hydraulic hose. They also have sheet rubber and vinyl products among other things. If you find your local supplier of these things you should be able to choose whatever product you want. I have been meaning to do mine but, lazy, distracted... the usual.

I don't know of any such supply house around here, but I will check with a fireman I know.... Was thinking of some rubber runner type material, that is used in hallways etc. But doubt it would stand up to the heat under the hood.
Thanks for your suggestion!!

I just remembered I got a product of sheet rubber or vinyl IDK what the materiel is, from them that is non-conductive. Flat one side small ridges the other. I needed to protect something. I remember thinking it had nice weight for being only 1/8 inch and it was the right amount of stiff and flexible for a fender liner. https://www.thomasnet.com/virginia/s...9460400-1.html
