Fiberglass Fender Skirt/MCI9

HI Folks!
New to the iRV2 site, and loving all the info! Some bad human scraped the side of my MCI-9 and tore off half the fiberglass fender skirt over the dual rears.

R&M Fiberglass doesn't make them anymore, and I'm turning to you here to maybe point me to where I could get a replacement. I can't repair the broken one, as the pieces can't be found.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Saw a repair like this down in Mexico, and also had one myself. The tech took off the other side, made a mold, and then removed the broken wheel surround, and used the mold to hold it in place while he used those fiberglass repair kits to make a partially new surround, joined them together with magic glue.

I don't recall if they needed to create a mirror image of the surround or not.

After that, it was a matter of sanding and painting.

For my ruined basement door, that's what they did. Got an entire new door insert back from the shop that makes that sort of fiberglass repair parts. Used tin snips to cut it to shape myself so I could have fun too, and after installation, they painted it to match. Looked like new.

These guys have all kinds of fender skirts listed on their site for trailers but they also make custom skirts based on your original. Possibly send them the skirt from the other side and have them create the one for the missing side.

Might be worth contacting them to see what they can do for you.
