Grand Surveyor Wheel Moulding

I had a blowout and the tire destroyed the decorative mold over the tires.
Anyone know where these can be obtained?

I got my replacement wheel well trim directly from a nice parts lady at Forest River.
If you're dealer is not a far drive you can go thru them also.
I'm guessing you'll have to pay shipping either way.

Don't forget to check for damage/leaks in the wheel well area. It would be a bummer
to drive in the rain one day and find wet carpet when you get there.
Good Luck!

I had two - the second one just after repairing the first! My dealer got replacements from FR - about $100.
But - replace tires with higher rated ones or it will keep happening. My 04 GS270 still had original tires rated at 1250lbs each. Trailer was 5500lbs loaded - too close IMO. New tires (same type) are now rated for 1750lbs load.
