Fender skirt question

We went to an open house for a new dealership in our area (Show Me Campers in Grain Valley MO - the only KC area dealership to carry TM's!)
and noticed the new TM's had a half-moon (semicircle) type fender skirt on the wheel wells. We have a 2004 model 3023 and it does not have those.

Are those just for show or can they be purchased and installed?

I've tried doing and internet search for fender skirts but all I've come up with are the molding-style ones.

Thanks!

They help to keep the inside of the rear shell from getting wet and dirty while traveling. If they are not there, the wall of the rear shell becomes the skirt. The previous owner may have lost them. I am sure that the TM factory would sell you some. In my opinion they are a must have.

Do you have a semicircle wheelwell or a rectangular one. The covers are not interchangable.

I had never noticed these before...even visiting the rally I did not notice them...I went to the TM website...and it made me wonder why I never noticed them before.
