Running Boards, redux

So I get the cabriolet out of the barn last weekend. Starts right up, runs great and I take it for a spin. Then I get out and notice: a GD porcupine has taken about eight bites out of the rubber on my LH running board! I couldn't believe it, after all I went through to get them restored. The insurance does cover the damage though, so now I need to take it off and get it down to Hundley Acuff. Meanwhile, the carcass of a certain rodent is now laying out in my back 40.
