My boat is a a shallow V and is a pain to get straight on the trailer. I purchased some of those carpeted bunkboard guides with a board on each side; however, my trailer is too wide. If I installed them they would be about 6 inches away from the side of my boat. I would like to have some made out of angle iron. Can anyone recommend someone for the project?

Kent, where did you get your bunks? I have been thinking about something like that. I've had issues getting my boat straight on the trailer as well.

The ones that I purchased and are being returned today I purchased from Boater's World for $150.

Here might be another type of bumper option:

Check out the picture of this type of bumper guide - it might be cheaper & easier to install.

Craig, I just got my boat back from Metal Craft Trailers. They did a great job on the trailer. They installed a couple bunks (which I believe will be better than the single bars shown in the link). Cost was $200, which I believe was reasonable, especially considering the quality of the finished product.
