Default FOUND: sort of. stone fender guards for new beetle

ok, i had to dig through many threads on the old forums, but i found a place that sells fender guards for the beetle. they are called gravel guards and come in black and white. they are plastic. here are the part #s:

1C8-007 (rear, set of 2) add "-WH" for white and "-BK" for black $78
1C8-006 (front, set of 2) add "-WH" for white and "-BK" for black $71

unfortunately, the website is kind of weird. has anyone bought from them before? good or bad? i am thinking about buying these, but i don't know yet.

here's the address:
http://www.westcoastmetric.com/newbe...ssories&stat=1

have to click on the "next page" blue arrow to get to the page where they have the fender guards.

if anyone has these or plans on getting them, let me know!

There's no apostrophe before an 's' when you're talking about the plural version of a word. "I took some neat photo's!" is NOT correct.

Hi,

Couldn't remember who was looking for these - but now I do!
1stvwparts has a set of 4 - they call them fender accents. Not sure if having just black is an option that makes your decision making any easier or harder. . . set of 4 = $115.25
