Default Nice bath and lil present

So since it should be a great weather on the weekend and thx to all the blooming trees i had to wash my car today. Just got a fresh bath plus got a little something to protect my back, since people in NYC, Brooklyn really do not care what they hit when they park. Got scratched a bit last week, today got guards, did want anything big, so this looks pretty nice, almost unnoticeable, now looking for something fine to cover the front.

That's a nice ride. Congrats. I love the rear guard. Is it a universal or a fit for rx? Where did you find it

Looks nice and shiny but when you park anywhere in BK all their going to do is push the bars in against the bumper and paint damage will still be a nuisance. Its a shame that most people in the 5 boroughs don't care about someone Else's nice stuff.

Thanks, it is actually made for Benz ML series, standard it fits RX but it is set very low, and barely guards the car. The shop i got it from in Queens, BroadFeet, i spoke to the guy and modified it a little bit where the holders at and lifted it for another 2 inches so it would fit the car nicely. You can see your local part stores im sure they can do the same, but it is a bit pricy, cost about a 100$ more than the ones they made for RX only(which are truly bit and ugly and kill car's look in my opinion).

Well when they see guards they tend to be more careful cuz they hurting themselves bit more and this particular guard steps out a bit so it is not close to my bumper, unless you hit it good, it wont touch the bumper.

Oh yeah, they are a problem, ive been there in winter for vacation, got really surprised when one jumped on the road, i think you will need complete side-side cover, im looking only for the middle , thats gonna be enough for parking, but sure ill post a pic when i find something i like.
