Morning folks. I saw a post years ago on making shields for your feet that connect to the crash bar.
Any help... thanks

The original "Foot Guards" were made by Markland and mounted to the lower engine guards and were chromed metal. Later, there were ones made with acrylic that snapped onto the crash guards. I still have a set of the acrylic one on my '03, that have been on for years. I'm not sure if they are still being made or by whom. Oh yeah, they work pretty good.

rubber overshoes that meet up with my chaps and they do a
good job in the winter... JM2C

Hello from South Jersey, I have one oem from Markland less the hardware. I have it as a in the flat so that I can make a set up
I do make a few items no longer made by Markland . Bill O , has a few of my stainless work items. The hardware in stainless , alone is not cheep. And the toe/rain guards will be a bit different ( greater area ) I do not keep the hardware in stock but have a vendor. I do have a few sets of vent trim with hardware in stock , and also mirror trim / with hardware. Any thing else is a 2 week lead \ time .
