I'd like to let all of you know that we will have another item available in a few days. Brian has been redesigning the way we mount the strut cover to simplify it but also retain the look on the full scale with the leather cover. He is making extra parts of everything needed so we will have another, what shall we call it, the strut cover installation kit. It will consist of a spacer that will go between the cover / door, bolts for mounting the door, the aluminum straps that attach the 'leather', the material for the flexible cover / leather, screws for the straps, and probably a template to make cutting these doors out easier.
The idea is to retain the look of the full scale, without needing to articulate the door up and down on the strut. This also eliminates the concern you have with the tire possibly coming in contact with the door if the strut bottoms out on a rough landing or bounce, as can happen if you articulate the strut cover.
I'll be posting pictures of all this in a couple days.
Here is what I'm referring to and basically the way it will look.
