or you can go the flexi flares for about $50 and fit them yourself.

Takes some balls to trim the rear doors though depending on how much trimming is needed.

There is a good write up on it on here I think it is. Worked well on my disco.

I used the Clark rubber jobs that screw on from the outside and mount flat to the guard flush,. Total cost was about $90 all up (about 6 meters did the 4 guards).

Each to there own, they do the job so that's good enough for me :D
