Hi Guys,

I’m gauging interest in a potential group buy. Stone guards:

 

  • Front Clam.
  • Rear Clam.
  • Rear Wheel Arches.
  • Sills (possibly).

All will be professionally laser cut (for self application, to fit NA & TB) out top quality “car wrapping” vinyl in:
 

  • Clear.
  • Matt Black.
  • Gloss Black.
  • Carbon Fibre Finish (3D type).

I’m thinking of the following price points (per pair, shipped in a tube – rolled – with an applicator), subject to change. Will offer "scale of economy discount" against "sets":
 

  • Front Clam= £19.50.
  • Rear Clam = £25.00.
  • Rear Wheel Arches = £22.50.
  • Sills (possibly) = £30.00.

     

Please let me know your thoughts on price point, sizes, finishes & design. Snaps are of prototypes applied to my NA. Design may change a little (esp. rear clam which may be curved, better echoing the shape of fibreglass form).

Please Note: This is about the stone guards group buy only. Don’t hijack the thread with a critique of my car.

Thanks – Benzola.

Very interested for the front clam but need it to cover more of the front in gloss, all the way across the front bumper and a small strip that covers just above the headlights all the way across the front, need something to put on the car after the front clam gets a respray due to stone chips Is it possible?

I like the sill version, especially with variable text available.

"speedster" in my case.

I'm trying to get a decent set of templates together (my vinyl guy is good but doesn't really "get it" when it comes to contours). I know a couple of the guys on here have CAD templates for Ventureshield that would be a VERY good starting point. Requests for CAD "share" made but no response :-(

 

Which is a shame because I;d gladly give some free "bits" to anyone kind enough to help me develop templates.

Right.... This all fell-by-the-wayside last year (+ got a wee bit let down with development)... I'm ready to pick up the project again... Anyone up for cutting some patterns & doing a bit of CaD?
