I'm guessing at £70 it was 2nd hand ? If new, really interested where you bought it from.

Id imagine it was 2nd hand lads,

I dont think the copies have the Prodrive logo gut in them. Still a great price if all it needs is a polish up to look like mine

I think they can be ordered from the States, taking into account the current exchange rate, for aprox £70. But you would have to add postage and potential Customs bill I would imagine.

Frayz.... how is the finish on your diff guard lasting mate ? Does it take alot of looking after to keep it in tip top shape ? Just wondering as I have just recieved my Prodrive guard and before I start making it 'look good' was wondering should I go down a different road like power coating or the like so it lasts better...

Curious as to you thoughts mate !!!

Thx in advance !!

Ricky !

Sorry fella, completely overlooked this.

I clean my exhaust and the guard everytime the car is washed. I re-polish the guard every month or so and yes it stilll looks as good as the day i fitted it.

I dont think its too much trouble at all.
