My latest purchase from ebay is a pair of 7" stainless steel headlight mesh guards.

Quality is excellent and corrosion won't be happening like the original chromed items.

The seller also does the 5 3/4" guards for the P[L]510 for example, 2 pair cheaper than the 7" ones.
Should look neat on the SP310 when the time comes

I know this is a super old thread, but any pics on the car? Curious to see how they would look?

They look fine
, but they don't fit
The 3 tabs welded on the rim are 120deg apart whereas the Roadster tabs are offset!
Not an insurmountable problem but a low priority at this time

I like the look, I got a set from someone here, and haven't installed them yet, I hope they fit!

Curious if indexing of the RHD headlights are different than the LHD cars in the "bucket".
Glass fluting is definitely different. Ours beam right as to not blind oncoming motorists.
