Pro Guards

Huh! For such a simple solution to a drag issue I wonder why FLM didn't just include it with the designs for CV and MM ... I mean, it's a piece of ABS w/ screws, right? Nothing too complicated?
I had no idea I was going to start "Ballooning" with age ... (well, not on the CAR, that is) and if its so simple to prevent, Count me in! Do i have to call to order?

With 33K you are probly already ballooning and don't realize it.

Call DR's.
 
I have been balloning since I retired from the USN...and gravity sucks...

Have ProGuards on the cars for a long time now...no issues to speak...


:cool:
 
Wow, I called to order a 45$ ProGuard skid plate and ended up getting an SCT XCal II to go with it. I rationalized it with all the gas, hotel, & beer money I'm going to save by being stuck in an apartment w/ a leaking water pipe ... :)

Thanks! I've been reading about tuners forever, glad to finally get persueded to jump into the tuner pool! Hey, magindat, were those guages you were talking about a while back ever done into the 'dual' format? And were you going right to the AeroForce web site or was there another vendor? My current guage project involves replacing all the LED's I can to change all my greens to blues. At the same time, I loved the digital multi-purpose guage you showed & thought it would be a great replacement for the OP guage. The dual setup may be overkill for me, but it would LOOK great :) Anyway, just thought I'd ask to see if it was going to be in my near future or not.

The idea I had was that I get them tested and 'approved' for Marauder, do a GB, then pass them to a 'real' site vendor so we can always have access to them. Dennis expressed interest. I can't wait for it to all work out!!!!
 
i am trying to order online and i cant add one to my basket. therefore i cant order :(

i just tore mine off the car. After being next to the exhaust it became flimbsy and would flap in the wind...Had 2 people in 3 days pull up along side and tell me it was flapping in the wind...so off it came.

I do exhaust work for a living and I hate them damn things....they do NOT keep the bumper cover from doing what it clams it will. I had a guy tell me "just take it off and throw it away " so I did. :D

:D

I will...

Blow it out your a-- there muffler guy.
They DO work, and you have an opinion, however that's all it is, and all it's worth. Start your own thread with your opinions and keep them off the vendor threads.

I fully agree the product does indeed work! I just dont understand how people cannot notice a difference when they make changes to there car.Like changing gears,there is a difference how can one not notice.... Not a true car guy I guess :P
 
Every one is entitled to there opinion, but I will simply say your wrong, the Pro guard does work, it keeps the rear bumper from ballooning out at high speeds, no it will not prevent the side from distorting as some of us have seen, on our cars, most police agencies use them on there CV and I can safely say there are over a three hundred sold to Marauder owners and I think this is the second complaint I have heard, I have one on my car for over a year it still is flat not heat distorted my car makes about 568 RWHP and has LTH, so you have your opinion and the majority have theres. And we just got another order in and there almost sold out.
 
I have been behind 2 MM's, one with and one without the Progard. There is a definite difference. You can see the bumper "balloon" out at 75MPH in the car without the Progard.
