Magnetic stone guards

Post by ROBBELL »

Hope someone can help I was cleaning the car today and have broken one of the magnetic stone guards does anyone know where I can buy new black ones, second hand ones would be OK if anyone has any.

Ah seeing this post reminded me, maybe we can kill two birds with one stone... if nobody has any secondhand ones to sell Rob and he has to buy new, I also wish to purchase a new set and have seen them retailing anywhere between £23-£28 on eBay, well you can't get much better than recommendation so can anyone recommend a supplier / trader? I don't mind paying £28 but just need to know that I am getting a good quality product (that won't break during cleaning) and looks professionally made :)

Ah, Alec you obviously posted as I was typing, I emailed Titan about a week ago and he has not replied so I was wondering whether he still sold these?

Hi Alan, Got mine from him ages ago, perhaps he`s not on here anymore. They are good ones, had mine about 3 years and still look perfect.

Hi Alan, I got mine 2 years ago from I think it was Justroadster off eBay. I'm sure he was based at or near Epworth and he also sold wind deflectors too.I will look into it and get back to you, Tony.

Apologies for the delayed in replying
I've been way on holiday and only just seen this thread and your email.
I still have some MkII magnetic stoneguards available.
They are £13 per set + £5 p&p (UK)

Alan - have replied to your email with a PayPal link for you to complete if you still want a set

If anybody else wants some, please email or PM me :)

I bought a set of these some years ago, plain black. Then after a while decided to change them and bought some of the 3M stick on "carbon fiber" stuff and stuck it to the outside of the stone guard...worked a treat.. I suppose one could opt for any colour stick on film to match their car vs the contrast of the black... :wink:

Yes - it's not gloss shiny but not matt either
These are the MkIs as fitted to our Z3

I got mine from Titan 16 months ago and they are still as good as new. Remember when you wash your z3 to take them off and clean the body work under the guards.

I have an element of 'M-styling' on my car, If that's a good enough reason for the manufacturers to adorn a 320 with the M badge, then its certainly a good enough reason for me..
