It's 7 years old, and the clear coat on the running boards is flaking off from sun exposure. I'm also on an F150 board, and what some have started doing is coating them with a DIY bed liner material called Herculiner. That might work well for your fenders.<div><br></div><div>EDIT: I called the local Line-X franchise to see what they wanted to do my running boards, and the guy on the phone quoted me $675. I guess he didn't want to do it.&nbsp;<img src="http://www.rpod-owners.com/smileys/smiley19.gif" border="0" alt="Cry" title="Cry" /></div>]]>

They are meant to be permanent and to stand up to things being tossed in the bed. I think it would work.&nbsp;]]>

The cover for the black water tank flush port was ripped off also. I'll need to find a replacement cover. I may need to replace the whole port. There are some scrapes on the side from the screws when they pulled out. It looks like the tread hit it and it started separating on the back side and then peeled off toward the front. The fenders sure are not sturdy enough to take the impact of the tread.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>The worst thing was that these were Carlisle load range D tires. There was wear and I was going to check them when I got here to our daughter's house. We did not quite make it. We now have new Goodyear Endurance load range D tires. Hopefully, they will be good for a few years.</div>]]>

Ours has two separate lights, amber and red a few inches above the bottom of the fender. I have no idea where those went. I did not see them on the fender when I found it. As for the fender, it was flattened and tossed into the weeds by a passing vehicle, so there would not have been the opportunity to take measurements. I could take measurements from the other side.<div><br></div><div>I almost want to use one of the diamond plate ones that is squared off to have a flat top to use.

Find an epoxy that is fairly liquid, and mix it with a small batch of wood fiber (AKA saw dust) until it is about the consistency of peanut butter. You just don't want it to run. Then poke it into the holes with anything small that can get into the hole. Once you have it full, tape over it with masking tape or duct tape or whatever tape you have laying around. nce it's cured, you can remove the tape and drill it to accept screws.</div>]]>

I found the fender, but it was not reusable as it had landed on the road and someone hit it, sending it off into the weeds. It was mangled beyond use, so it went into the back of the highway safety truck that also picked up the tread that had separated.<div><br></div><div>We are at my daughter's house in South Jordan, Utah for about a week, then we will go to our daughter's house in the Phoenix area for a few days. I checked with Camping World, and was told a fender could be ordered from the factory. We all know what that would mean. I have one back home, but that is in North Carolina. It is one that was not quite right which is why it is at home.</div><div><br></div><div>Does anyone know of a place in the Salt Lake City area or the Phoenix area where I might be able to find a fender? I would like to have one in place before we leave to head back home.</div><div><br></div><div>Edit:&nbsp; Also, what is the best way to patch/fill the old screw holes? I'm pretty sure a new fender's holes would likely not line up with the existing holes.</div>]]>
