Stone Guards
 
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 ?

cheers

: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

The charity donation Is a top idea, you have my vote!

HandyAndy 3rd October 2011 06:33 PM

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.


HandyAndy 3rd October 2011 06:43 PM

Thanks James :)


here,s a pic from a distance .


james3004 3rd October 2011 07:03 PM

Looks good but but can I have a set a little shorter (kinda level with the top chassis rail)

I will make my donation here:

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.
