Rock Guards

[MadMax]

Anyone order any rock guards for their new GT500 for the front? I’ve noticed some loose gravel collects inside the air gap. Anyone else noticing this? Thanks

I went with ROKBLOKZ. I have not installed them yet due to paint protection film being installed, but you can see how well they work on our cars in this picture of them held in place.

Did you go with the GT350 ones or GT ones they don’t have option for 500 yet

Get the jaeger brothers rock guards. Dont bother with the stick on ones, they suck. I went through two sets of the zl1 addons rock guards, they kept falling off at speed.

I had the same problem with them. The Rokblokz do not use tape, they use the existing bottom two push pins and a clever thingamabob mount for the top hole. I had the Jaegers on my 15 and I liked them but they don’t come out far enough on the GT500 to blend in with the rocker panel in my opinion.

I've got the RokBlokz on my GT and the design is outstanding (I've seen [and owned] quite a few products, and these are by car the best, from the mounting implementation to the fasteners and materials). They require (at least on a GT), minimal permanent modifications to mount them.

@Jmeo did you order the gt350 or GT? Also did you just order front ones? Thanks

I ordered the GT350, and front only. The rear is already sufficient on GT350 & GT500.

The zl1 addons used a combination of the 3m tape and the pushpins. Neither worked out. That doesnt mean they wont work for you however. Ymmv

You are correct. I never had a problem with the push pins, it was always the tape coming undone due to the rebound of the flap being forced to bend to the shape of the wheel well. The Rokblokz use the existing push pin locations, but provide bigger push pins to do the trick.

So far I only used it for the 22 mile ride to drop the car off for paint protection film, but I absolutely love it. Beith makes the best wheels out there, and having it the way I like them with smooth and perforated leather, and no alcantara, is that much more enjoyable to see, feel & use. I highly recommend getting one.
