Bowlocks! Pic of New Ally S1 with black stone guard required

[Grinnders]

Tried refreshing my stone guard protection at the weekend which had gone a bit yellow after 8 years.

When taking the first old one off managed to lift some of the paint off too.

Now contemplating changing to black (instead of like-for-like clear) as DIY touch up paint job will no doubt show through a transparent replacement.

many thanks

You had stone guard last 8 years?

My stone guard hasnt lasted 6 months!

[Grinnders]

The stone guard obviously lasts much better than the paint beneath it !

mine is new aluminium with black stone guards stuck on top of the original clear ones.




looks much better IMO

Hi Grinnders - is that the protection on the rear of the sills, just below the air vents??? If so I can show you mine ...I think black looks great.

Hi Grinnders - I can show you mine

I thought I'd have to gatecrash the BoLOCS xmas party to get an offer like that Julia. Of course, as a gentleman, you show me yours and I'll show you mine, but yes the rear quarter protectors!

Are you mobile yet or still a static display or modern art ? Not teasing, just the last write-up I read of yours I think you said you were all chocked up !

And sometimes I have to myself by overlooking the obvious Gary's suggesting of putting black over the top of the originals. So brilliantly simple it hadn't crossed my mind

Yes, the beast is back on 4 wheels now - on Saturday it looked well classy as the whole car was up on bricks with NO wheels at all!!!! Needed to get the new tyres put on and didn't want the divvy's at the tyre place sticking the jack through the undertray!

It will be going bac up on stilts later this week for some more geo tweaking and an oil change. It's all go go go!!!

Looking forward to some mutual flashing soon.
