L5 Fender Flare Replacement Liners?
My fender flares have been on my car for over 3 years and with the recent journey to Double D Mods and back it pretty much wiped out whatever benefit they had left in them. The right one is completely missing now and the left one is cracked.
I have already sent an email to Lewis5 Motorsports to inquire but, I was wondering if any of you have already replaced yours or gone with an alternative liner/sound deadener that is better? I have to do something, it didn't take long for me to become extremely annoyed with the big Michelins kicking up pebbles and hearing them in the wheel wells.
Any help or advice appreciated. Thanks

The power of the Forum...Gotta love it.
Thanks to both of you for your ideas and help. Both are good solutions.
Interesting note...I got a reply back from Susan Lewis at Lewis 5 Motorsports, and she said I was the first person to wear them out...I find that hard to believe. She asked if I drove my car a lot and I said no. In fact since I've been OTR these past 5 years, I remember my car had 81,000 miles back in 2010, and here we are in 2015 and it just tripped 88,000 after my quest to Double D. I told her highway's aren't always perfect, bridge expansion joints and road dips are unkind to lowered cars. Just for future reference, she quoted me at $85.00 shipped for the pair. I told her I had other resources I was contemplating but, glad to know they have the original parts for sale.
