yeh been watching ebay for the last few months and theres been nothing. I can get one in the US for $40 in 4 weeks but dont fancy bringing it back on the plane!
 






HMm cant even nick one if you see one- they are fixed under the bonnet with screws that you can only take off with the bonnet open! LOl......Hang on- check Si s Ex- lets go over.............he will be entertaining for a while- Wink!!!!
We can lift his and strip the thing and leave an IOU on his drive-----Shhhhh tho keep this between us ok?
And were sneakers when we meet so he dont hear footsteps mate.
 


















I will keep an eye out for you mate- if I find one, will let you know- I like mine- really does work, old people and kids just leave no marks at all- straight over the roof bars- magic!
 






Are these what they call "bonnet guards"? or is that a different thing?

Reckon so - would there be a chance of a Ranger one fitting? These are on eBay under bonnet guards.

Cheers, i think they are pretty model specific, i think im just gonna get one in the US in a couple of weeks and post it back to myself, they are only $44 to buy there for a genuine Ford one, unless i see an Ex one in the next week around a similar price in the UK.
 












cheers for the info, just called them up and they can order them for fifty quid each plus a tenner postage, will see how i go on in the US for prices and postage and if its too much will order one from these guys when i get back, thanks again
 












I've got one fitted on my explorer with a FORD logo on it
came with the car
