How about removing the strips and flame polishing the edges....much cleaner...

Hi - I am looking for just the side brackets - In South Africa I can only find the deflectors at Jaguar, they have an illuminated one for $4000.00 and they have a mesh one for $400.00 - I would like the brackets and then make my own. At Jag they say the side brackets are not available.

Please give me the part number of the brackets, I see this deflector comes without brackets so they must be available

Don’t think anyone has reported finding just the brackets without the deflector.

I don't fancy paying $400.00 for a mesh one just so I can replace the mesh with clear perspex - Apparently visibility is not great through the mesh especially at night with the hood up

I’d say it’s mediocre through the OEM mesh screen. Makes it a smidge more difficult to identify LEO in the distance behind you, but I’ve found it acceptable.
