140 Wheel Pant Backing Plates

I'm looking for the apparently-elusive wheel pant backing plates. I know someone in this group offered a carbon fiber set some years ago. I am also aware there was a push to have a bunch manufactured if there was enough demand within our group, but that was some years ago. I know they are a stamped plate with compound curves, and not just a flat piece of metal. Does anybody have a source for these or are the carbon-fiber ones still around? I have a '47 with the older-style gear legs and Clevelands toward the back.
