Hi All, I'm doing up a 50's trailer and looking for a suitable set of guards and lights for it. I'm thinking a pair of rear guards with matching lights from a pre-elephants foot beetle would be ideal, but am open to any suggestions. Must be cheap and in Victoria.

Thanks!

Will be dropping into a motorcycle wrecker on the weekend, but I do really like the idea of a pair of beetle guards and lights, and the angle isn't an issue as it is semi-flatbed,

Bendigo swap is 20th November. You'd find some bike guards there no problem.

Cheers,
