I have seen them listed on Ebay every now and then. I think theres one on now.
If I had to replace mine I'd go to a sheetmetal works(someone who makes pisstroughs) and get one bent up.
Stainless would last forever but be heavy.
Mild steel is cheap.
Aluminium would be the best option if you have a seperate spare wheel carrier.
