Stone guards - STM/Aries
I am after some stone guards for my Locoblade but having had a frantic couple of weeks leading up to SVA I want something that will just go straight
on with minimal fettling. The rear arches are quite narrow at the bottom of the front (~20cm) and most of the ones available off-the-shelf are about
24cm. I have trial fitted some carbon-look abs ones and they looked crap and carbon-look vinyl didn't look right either. The bottom outside
corner has a bit of a compound curve to it which makes it a little awkward to get either abs or vinyl to sit right.
Anyone got any other suggestions please?

See my post from Saturday and photo archive - fitted some pukka self adhesive carbon fibre today. Two 50x25cm sheets for £35 and dead simple to trim
and shape.

Stoneguards
I have a S.T.M Locblade and I bought from the Robin Hood Company a set of there aluminium guards. Being alloy they bend to the shape of the rear
arches and I pop riveted them in place. I don't know if they are still available as they have changed hands but give them a ring, they were only
£10 for the pair.
