Just after folks opinions :)
I made my own stone guards for my rear wings, quite pleased with them :)
I,ve got enough material left to make a few spare sets so thought I,d see if anyone would like some ?

Hi Andy,
What are they made from Andy? and what would the cost be.
Terry
:o Oops, suppose I should,ve mentioned that bit ....
I,ve made mine from ali ( 1.5mm thick), but I also have some 2mm stainless steel sheet that I can use too.
I,d supply them with holes pre drilled too.
I,ll be totally honest here, I don,t know how to say this really so please forgive me if I,m being cheeky.......
I,m not after any money for them but I,d be chuffed if a small donation to Cancer Research was given the next time you see a collection going on....My mother was diagnosed with Cancer earlier this year so thought this might be a nice way to "Give" a little donation to in my opinion a worthy charity :)
I hope that comes across ok ? :o ( I don,t wish to offend anyone by my suggestion of the charity thing ).
cheers

Here,s a photo of mine....
If you would like them slightly shorter ( so they don,t go so high up the wing then thats not a problem.

Top idea Andy,
I've got plenty of offcuts of ali you can have next time you're over, to go towards the stone guard fund.
