I saw some aluminum ones on fleabay for $150.
What do you have and how do you like them?
It's the last piece of the puzzle to try and conquer the most difficult trail at Uhwarrie.

I bought all around a-arm skids on "fleabay" for 115. Painted with plastidip that helped with sound detaining and couldn't be happier with them. 0a3a22147de91778b1a6c02bd26d9a9e1fb04ecf186e6fddc0e4ad46b0d14b5c I also did a bit of grinding on the ends other than that they are going to perform fine for what they are.

I prefer the UHMW material overall. If you can get all four guards for $150 made from Aluminum that's about 40% less than you would likely find a full set of 4 made from UHMW. I had an aluminum set on a 2006 Rincon hit a big rock and it bent the aluminum back to where it cut into my CV boot the very thing I needed it to protect. It was a 1 in a million deal for that to happen but yet it did and I have stayed away from aluminum since.

That is the brand I am running along with the full skid plate, email or call him direct he offers discounts to forum members, My full skid set lists for $800 + Shipping (includes al 4 A-arm guards) he sold it to me for $735 free shipping. I am pretty happy with it overall.

I dealt with Rick on my full skid plate. Very happy with the deal and the product.
Their A arm protectors don't seem to go up high enough.
I could be wrong

I agree with you on the height of the A arm guards. Factory UTV does it right but does not offer them for P500.
