l'Escargot may have a skirt! (Ford E250)

Hey!
I'm planning several mods on my van:
I already bought four pizza pan to make smooths hub caps. I'm now looking for old hubs on which I can glue them.
I made a first attempt on a grill block. I still have to find a way to fix it so it can be easily removed...
AND
I want to make skirts for the rear wheels!
I would really appreciate your advices on that.

I'll try to be clear (english is not my first language).
Because of the shape of the van, I can't see how I can cover all the gap. There's a curve that ends in the middle of the width of the tire. I believe the skirt will have to make a considerable bend if I don't want it to touch the tire... (It's funny, I'm writing and I'm quite sure nobody understand what I mean ) . Look a the picture you may understand

I can work with wood (thin plywood), metal and plastic what do you think is the best material. I don't want to use coroplast.

Thanks for your advices!
