Default Floorboard Skid Plates? (Floorboard Savers)

I found these "Floorboard Savers" for Goldwings and would like something like this for my 09 Street Glide Floorboards.

Anybody know if someone makes them?

Scraping footboards on a Harley is a rite of passage. Gold Wingers are pussies.

I should have given more information.
I am not just dragging my floor boards I am dragging my floorboard brackets. I only have a little bit of travel before the bracket start dragging.
Floor boards are on a hinge and are designed to be dragged but the brackets are not.
I need something to give me a little more warning before I drag the bracket t
o keep her on 2 wheels

Scraping your floorboards on a Harley is childs play. Try scrapping pegs when they are halfway up the bike and your hand grips are almost touching the ground. The point is, how do I scrape my floorboards without costing me a small fortune to replace them.

I know this post is old, but has anyone found floorboards for Harley that has replaceable skids?

Hope so, because I really don't want to keep replacing $100-$300 floor boards for a "Right of Passage". I'd rather keep that money in my pocket.

I use 1/2" angle iron. Cheap and easy to replace.
