I do make sheet metal hole covers for the CJ. However if you must have
original, then make fabric patches with pinked edges. Glue them in just
like doing a control surface patch, shrink until taut and then dope over
the top before painting. That's how the Chinese did it.

Rich, I cut the fabric out of those on my CJ years ago. I used some old aviation
aluminum that came off an old Cessna wing; measured and cut round plates to
fit back over the holes using tinnerman clips and screws to hold in place. Painted
them a flat gray to sort of match the color in the wheel well. They have
never come loose or fallen off in the breezy wheel well.

This is what Craig Payne=99s painted wheel well covers look like
when installed. They fit perfectly.

If so what did you do and use? My CJ is almost out of the paint shop and
the painter wants to paint the wheel well. I would like to get the wheel
well back to original condition.Thanks in advance.
