So the heavy black plastic I bought for the wheel skirts a few years ago comes un a big wide roll. I cut my wheel skirts to use the formed curve of the roll to hold the skirt off the tire. I screwed up on the passenger side so it sometimes touches the tire just a wee bit on a curve or bump. No biggie. No damage. One day I will remake that one. The driver side one is beautiful and has never touched the tire. No supports needed. The curve of the plastic is all....

That's about right. I litterally found this section of pipe in the street while biking a year or three ago. I salvage stuff and follow the "look alikes" design strategy. It's a book I used to read to my daughter at bedtime:
