Post CV Boot guard templates

Does anyone have CV boot guard templates (or even a full skid plate guard) to share for the DIY'ers?
I am thinking about making my own for a Rincon and a KQ.

Any info. appreciated...
Kevin.

Can you take off the existing boot guard,then use cardboard or paper and frorm it around the guard then trace out the outside lines and make your own template that way?

That's how I make every guard, mount, etc. I use card board from pop cases and duct tape. A little fold here, a little cut there until I achieve what I want and then transfer the pattern to the steel or aluminum. I find that making it myself usually yields a better/stronger product than I could buy. I tend to over kill on the thickness and strength of the materials needed.

Is that your "quad" in the avatar? If that is the case, I would say over doing it is good!
