Lookin' good Joe! I didn't have to jack up mine either.... the ProGuard and JLT were the easiest mods.....

How Much $ do the pro-guards run?

And what exactly do they do?

I forget the exact cost, but IIRC it was around $35...

What it does is prevent airflow under the car from getting trapped behind the rear bumper and deflects it UNDER the bumper. This helps improve fuel economy (less drag) and keeps the bumper from "billowing" or "ballooning" at highway speed.

I believe it was originally designed for police cars so they wouldn't rip off the bumper when going across mediums.

Subsequent pricing is $50, I believe.

Thanks ! for the compliments.

Routine ( every couple of weeks -or- once a month ) cleaning .....


Up on jack-stands
Take off wheels ( good time to detail 'em inside and out )
Use spray wheel cleaner ( that's safe for all wheels and rubber )
Let soak and then use a scrub brush
Rinse
-optional- Top-off with a dressing
