My Dad ended up having his running boards on his 31 chevy rod done with rhyno liner. They look terrific. They masked the area so the rhyno liner is only where the covers used to be. The painter also was able to either paint over it or color the rhyno liner the same as the whole car (a dark metal flake silver). Looks really clean and neat. Extemely durable too.
He always had trouble with the original covering, either peeling or shrinking. Here is a pic.

I guess that's a "Why didn't I think of that" suggestionsince I'm going to undercoat the undersides anyhow - and bed liner material on both sides would be a good way to go - and the first covers were only 'stuck' on in June and started peeling in the basement without ever being installed on the car - thanks.
Your dad's car is real nice - a nice change from a '30-'31 Ford - has he been to the September NSRA shows in Burlington, VT? It looks familiar.Dave
I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
