Does anyone have dimensions for the checker plates?

I'm considering making some checker plate alternatives because I'd like a smoother material, but still want to protect the top of the fenders. Does anyone who has the checker plates also have a measuring tape and some time to provide some dimensions?

Hi abakker, I will try and get you some measurements soon. I would recommend making them out of aluminum and having them anodized satin black. Anodizing creates a finish that is as hard as saphires and is resistant to scratches and corrosion. I prefer it over power coating. Note: The airline rails or utility rails on the Grenadier are anodized satin black in case you want to see how it looks. DaBull

GP Factor makes some that are really sharp. Slightly thicker than the OEM parts and available for $219 for the set and they are applied with 3M VHB-5952 tape, which is pretty tough and durable. No drilling required and can be done DYI. We sell those as well. I will post a video of them and a photo here today or tomorrow. I am literally going out to compare them and install now.

Estoy pensando en fabricar algunas alternativas de chapa estriada porque me gustaría un material más liso, pero quiero proteger la parte superior de los guardabarros. ¿Alguien que tenga las chapas estriadas también tiene una cinta métrica y algo de tiempo para proporcionar algunas dimensiones?
