Default Fender Grip Tape

Does anyone know where to find grip tape for the top of fenders?

This seems like such a simple thing. But, I've been looking here and there for months and I can't find anything that looks like what's missing from my Heritage trailer. All the grip tape I've found so far has been too narrow (like the safety tape for steps). I found some rubber pads that have a pattern on them like tread plate, I was going to settle for them, but they were too short.

    6"x16" with the corners rounded off at a radius somewhere around 1". Of course, if I could find something wider and longer I wouldn't mind cutting it myself. If it wasn't for the fact that it's a near snow storm here I'd snap a pic of where the missing ones were stuck :|

    Excellent.
    I'll have to cut the corners but that's no big deal. Especially given the fact that the prices there beat the local True Value special order quotes by about 10x.
    Thank you, sir.
