Inner fender splash guards

[Cygan1008]

Just got off the phone with toyota and have been looking online. If I just order the new ones im upwards of $100 for 4 little pieces of plastic, f**k that. Does anyone on here have a template for them that you wouldnt mind mailing to me so I can make some? Mie are completely gone or I would do it myself. I will pay the postage and even send it back to you if need be.
Thanks,
Matt

I replaced mine with some old inner tubes. Go by a tire shop and ask for an old tube -it was long ago but I think it was a truck tire shop I got mine from. I cut em to size and held them in place with zip ties.

Good luck.

Do they actually do anything?

The purpose is just to keep crud from splasing up in the engine bay and dress out the fender like gap guards do on a body lift. The truck is perfectly fine without them but since I lifted it there is a much larger view into the fender and I dont like the way it looks without them because I can see all the engine bay behind, just looks kindda cheap and unfinished to me.

There was a write up somewhere where a guy used a trash can lid or something and it turned out pretty good.

Thanks for the input so far guys I may have been a little unclear in my original post but I am just looking for someone that may have a template for the shapes/sizes of them. I know what I'm going to use I just want it to look as clean as possible so I was hoping some of the guys that have traced the stock ones on something to use as a guide may still have those lying around.

Hey Cygan- you maybe try calling a pick and pull place? just a thought cuz i know i should be looking at some as well. Helps keep some water out of the engine bay and creating more headaches.

Someone definitely did this with some rubber mat that they cut. I recently came across some pics of how they traced it from a large square of flexible black rubber mat. It was part of a build thread IIRC. Maybe gshadow?
