Hey guys go get youself some of the heavy duty plastic wheel pants that sig makes for the something extra. You have to put them together but will have a set of wheel pants that last forever. I got a pair for my VF extra after the stock wheel pants went into the trash can. They only cost around 7.00 and any hobby store can order them for you. I just CA'ed them together and then cut out the opening for the wheel with a dremel. I then used a 1 inch wide strip of fiberglass cloth and 30 minute epoxy on the inside of the joint. Scuff them up with steel wool or fine grit sandpaper and paint. These pants have lasted hundereds of flights on 2 different planes. Go to sigs web site and type in keyword wheelpants and you will get several options.
