Plastic Skirting over tires

Just had a tire seperate on my 2006 Wildcat. It damaged the plastic skirting that goes over the two tires. This is the decorative piece with maybe a logo on it. Does anyone know about what this cost and where to order? Thanks

In the fall of 06 they were $175+ from FR. Don't ask how I know.

FR Parts Number

Hi,

Contact FR parts I was in contact with Todd Stringfellow today (574)-642-2640. You will probably be surprised at how cheap it is.

I was coming home yesterday from western, Pa and one of my junky Ultra CRT tires blew apart. It did a good deal of sheet metal damage to my lower skirting by the time I got stopped on the turnpike. I straightened it pretty well with body hammer and dollies. It still needs some straightening and painting. The paint code is a well guarded secret. I can't get a match by color name. Turns out they sell the preformed and painted skirting for $7.14 a foot + $30 for crating. The plastic that closes off the end of the skirting was $7.24. For about $150 I should be able to get it back to pre road gator condition.

Last fall I had a blowout on my Windjammer and talked to Todd mentioned above on several occasions. When it came time to place the order--he would never call me back. Ended up going through the dealer and mine was about $80.

Oh, BTW, I did not pay the $175, I repaired the broken one with alum strips on the inside and pop rivets. Was still looking good 4 yrs later when we traded it off.
