Marshall:

Yes, I am talking about the two plastic/rubber side panels or "tpr" panels as you called them. What does "tpr" stand for?

1. Do you make those?

2. Was also wondering what type of plastic they are made of -- polyethylene?, polypropylene?, etc.? Need to know so if I can't get new ones, I will need to glue/bondo/paint old ones.

Thanks,

Jim

The tpr panels are made from thermoplastic rubber, hence the abbreviation tpr.
