Default Finally...new stone guard

Finally had the nerve to let my detail guy remove my old, very dirty stone guard on the passenger side. Removed with no issues...here's the new one! Love it!

Just did the same. Detail guy was supposed to do the nose only because he was worried about paint damage. Once he saw how bad the factory guards looked next to the newly emerged nose, he pulled the factory stuff too.
I just put the new guards on last weekend. Also super happy with the result.

Yours looks perfect.

I did the carbon fiber magnetic stone guard and it has been great! Easy to remove and wash car. That's just my 2 cents and something to consider.

The guy who removed them took the measurements and cut out a new one! He works for my detailer.

Looks good, I know that's a relief. I noticed your bronze wheels and thought of a custom project I just did for a customer with bronze wheels. If you want to protect those new guards I know a guy...
