Is that picture with the hand in it in front of or behind the wheel? Ahead of the wheel, some taper could help the break-over angle. Curvature would probably help.
It's in front of the wheel. I think if I were to do this for real, I would use ABS so I could bend it, and just make 1 big piece.

I'm also considering finding some sort of "dope" I could use with cotton fabric, sort of poor-man's fiberglass without actually having to use fiberglass.

Wondering if wood glue on cotton, then sprayed with several layers of paint would be weather resistant enough.......
