Hi there,
Wondering if anyone can help me in my quest for some gravel guards, either rear only or front and rear as a set.
I would prefer older ones if possible, don't mind if they are a little roughish. Do not want newer empi ones as they probably wont fit the theme of my '67 Beetle Boris.
Thankyou in advance for your help.
Please u2u me if you have some to sell.
I am in Adelaide, so local pick up would be handy.
Thanks again.
Darren

there are two types [mainly]

aluminium.... very easy to bend & fit....
& recommended for city dwellers....

these get smashed to pieces by stones on gravel roads at high speed....
well not smashed but very dented....

Stainless steel ones...... harder to bend to shape...and fit.
recommended for country folk...

takes a lot to dent these fellas....
