Does anyone make stone guards for MINI headlights in the classic 1960's sportscar style? What I am referring to is a chromed grill mesh gurad. Something like this:

Yes......nobody could find any the right size for ages....believe one of our top northern England organisers has these on his cooper .... opps sorry the chap in question is Hat. Think there is a thread somewhere with a weblink on it too.

Thanks. Those look great, but I guess I was not specific enough. I was hoping for stone guards made to the regular MINI headlights.

hmmm.... not sure how these would be fixed to the headlight even if you got some the correct size & shape (the headlights aren't round, they're oval). theres no obvious anchor points

I agree. My guess is that these would need to be a integral with the headlight bezel. Certainly this would make them more expensive than simple stone guards such as those on your foglamps.

Hmmm, never seen thsoe before, can't you just clear plastic stickers that go on the headlights? Nice look tho would be different with grilles.
