Wheel arch stone guards
cerbera - 19/9/08 at 03:17 PM

I'm after a set of stone guards for my Stuart Taylor. Anyone got some good tips of where to buy from or what to make from? Also how have you guys fastened them to the car? PU Adhesive or some mechanical fasteners.

Cheers

How much do you want to spend? I like the carbonmods jobbies but they are not locost.

I like them too, but finances won't stretch to them

I had mine for Xmas.

I made some when I got new rear arches. I used some bits of left-over ali, so the "cost" was just some extra rivets.

See here for my thread and pics on what I did.

But............

They are of Robin Hood "Engineering" background (correct me if I'm wrong) and will probably turn up as they show in the photo, different bloody sizes...............

I've just got Optimum Balance Products ones from eBay. £20 for the non-polished pair and they seem pretty good.

MNR do some carbon effect ABS ones for a good price. They are pop rivetted on with 3mm rivets and come with holes pre drilled. Can take a pic if you want U2U me if so.
