We are excited to announce the improved version of our very popular Frame Guards.
Designed to protect the front nose of your C5 Corvette, this set of Dual-Hard Rubber Wheels and Bearings is a must!!
We went back to the drawing board and improved the original design by integrating sealed stainless steel bearings and hard rubber wheels. Unlike anything else on the market, the result is a much more durable combination. Something you will be very proud to install on your Corvette.
Each set includes all hardware necessary for a painless and quick installation.
Go with a name you can trust. This product is in-stock and ready to ship!
Go price the cost of the materials (delrin, bearings, GR8 bolts, etc.), factor in your labor and then post. I have no affiliation with this vendor but I do know that sometimes it is better to educate yourself first before posting...

Thank you! Plus we include the shipping. We could build and sell something cheaper, but it isn't something you would want on your car. Like most of our items, there is not a lot of mark-up in what we sell, but we need to remain profitable to stay in business.

I would be concerned that drilling a hole to install the axle would weaken the support, making it more likely to bend or break in the event you ever did hit something solid.

No that's not a concern at all. The frame/skid rails are very solid.
