Default Stone guards

Anybody know where i can get a set that are not carbon fiber
and cost $200.00 a set. Simple plastic will do. I thought these would be easy
to find and then again maybe i dont know where to look.

Are you referring to the pieces that would go behind the wheels, a bit like mud flaps?

My solution to this was to buy some clear paint protection film. You can buy small pieces of it online for a few bucks. I applied some touch up paint where the rocks had chipped away at the paint before applying the film. Works fine.

Simple stuff. I've got PPF behind the front wheels in the concave detail along the door. In addition, the previous owner put on Dragon Flaps (named for US 129) made of a neoprene like flexible material sandwiched between the wheel well liner and front quarter panel.

Heck, even using a large plastic container (like a detergent bottle) cut to size would work well.

I made a thread about some I got for pretty cheap

They're not showing any signs of wear either

DIY. 2mm thick PET plastic board, a template made out of thin cardboard, cut the PET in shape with sturdy kitchen scissors, sand the edges, drill it, screw it on, presto!

You can also buy generic mudflaps and customize them to your application:
