Has anyone got one of these and if so, where did you get it from?
Now that my cars off the road for the winter, it's getting the whole underneath detailed (also practising for a special RB320 that's coming in to us for some work in the new year ) and once it's all done I was planning on fitting a guard but the only place i could find one was an american site?
cheers for any help

I was going to get one a few times but kept finding more important things to spend £160 on so never got round to it.
Would still like one so if you are going to order one from the states at a decent price, could look for discount or combined shipping to see if it makes it cheaper or a group buy if more folk are interested ?

I'm up for that, although I'd like to buy from the UK if possible. I dont know why but I prefer not to buy from the states if i can avoid it!

I thought about one a few times and decided they were too expensive for show. The other downside is it would eliminate a very easy jacking point.

Thats the same as myself there's no chance of being hit for import duties buying from UK.

Your welcome Gee
You'll find they dont come with the black lettering of prodrive, I just sprayed on a bit of black aerosol over the area and with a fine grade of emery cloth cleaned off lightly the overspay

I'd planned on painting the letters blue/black to make it a bit different also. Turns out i'm not the only one!
How much was it from the Subaru dealer out of interest?

Sorry Clark i forgot about this. Yeah i would defo be up for one & trying to get something of for say 5 of them.
So thats us up to 3 if Fpan wants one just need 2 more. How about changing the thread title to "Prodrive diff guard group buy" to see if we can draw some possible others attention to it?
