Front Wheel Well liners?

I can't seem to find any online... does someone know a source for wheel well liners/inner fender for the front (and backs for that matter)?
Looking to [tastefully] mount some rock lights/clearance lights (for actual use) all around my X, but the wheel wells have me scratching my head as its only body sheet metal.

Your wagon doesn't have the plastic front inner fender liners?

Am I looking for the Fender 'Apron' or 'Insulator', or both?

@01__Excursion had found them somewhere. I don't recall where. Check his build thread.

I guess that I'm lost then.......in the pictures in your build thread I can see the plastic inner fender liner on your EX I think. Doesn't that rubber skirt by the manifolds attach to the fender liner? Maybe we are talking about two different things here....?

Hmmm. looks like you are right... but I think I am missing something still. Below, there is nothing covering the front portion of the bumper (bash bar, fog lights, etc). I assume there should be?

Nope, thats it. This is why all the front bumpers rot out....in the rust belt anyway.

Yup, that's all you get for the inner fender liners. I felt the same loss, hence the reason I improved mine.

Inner fender liners

Masticated rubber addition

Man... I just went through your thread. I wish I had half your ambition lol. Very nice!
Maybe I could pay you to make me a set of liners like yours

Thank you for the compliment, I actually wanted the masticated rubber to cover more of the forward frame, and the bumper area, but I didn't want to drill holes in the frame or turn the whole project into a clustered mess. Making more might be an option since I now have mine as templates.
