Rock Guards
 
Does anyone know where to buy the rock guards for the rear fenders?. They appear to be of thin rubber glue to the fender.

hc,
It may depend on your fender shape (although the rubber ones fit all, of course) but I saw some satin-finish (?) stainless ones on an ERA at a Tuesday night cruise-in show last week. They are preferable to aluminum ones, which dent. They are "dressier" than rubber. The owner said that they'll bend to fit any fender-shape--and do this in an interesting way: the bottom lip wraps around the bottom of the fender/flare and has three small-wire self-tapping ss screws. The vertical body of the guards then presses hard and concentrically with the fender. The angle you add to the generic pre-bend of the lip determines how snug they press. He even invited me to use a finger nail to pry the guard free---it did come out a bit but snapped right back. He also said he used a little bead of clear caulking to ensure water didn't run down behind. He told me they came off a Cobra-specific aftermarket supply house on the internet. Good luck.

I applied flat black undercoating, and think it looks pretty darn good, especially considering my complete lack of talent in these matters. Plus, the price was right! I do think it will require touch-up from time to time, which probably isn't the case with other approaches.
