Anybody know where to get the Rubber Material used in this THREAD ?
 
I used Shower Liner from Home Depot and painted it black. It works great.

Shower Liner.... Yeah, I've seen that stuff! Good idea, Dyno, I'll check it out. Thanks.

If it's been underhood for a while, Dyno, how's in held up to the temps?
 
They are doing great they are still very pliable and have no hint of turning brittle.

Cool. Living in AZ, I have to be acutely aware to the affects of da heatz.
 
My local orchard supply hardware sells neoprene rubber as well as something called rubber diaphragm material (it's rubber with fiber reinforcement). I'm using the diaphragm material and it's holding up well.
 
I got some black neoprene from ace hardware, they keep it near the hoses in my local shop. It was pretty pricey, but it it pretty thick
 
I use semi-truck mud flaps. The first one I purchased was something like $2.50. They've gone up a bit. The material is tough, thick and works well. Just use little nylok nuts and you're new again. Bob
 
Giving some homemade fender skirts a shot. Grade 70 1/16 inch neoprene from Amazon. New fender clips from Beno.

My passenger side was still intact so I used it for a pattern.

I just bought all new skirts from Toyota, don't remember them costing much, got a bag of clips also
 
I thought they were no longer available.
