Radical SR3 underbody skid plates
My Radical SR3 has underbody skid plates at the front corners, front center, and rear corners in front of the rear wheels. They seem to be cut from hardwood plywood.
Mine are getting sufficiently worn down that the rivet heads are about gone and the plates are getting pretty thin and ragged. Seems like these might be more suitable cut from nylon or some other modern material that might skid nicely and be durable when bottomed out. Is this something I should just cut from some suitable stock on my bandsaw or something that original hardwood plywood is somehow the most suitable material for? Any reason I shouldn't just cut some new ones out using the thinned ones as templates? What's the preferred material to cut these from?
