Designed and built in the Italian Apennines. A complete set of four diamond plate corner guards in 3+2 aluminium: the two front pieces with the indicator cut-out, the two rear pieces with the fuel filler cut-out. Available bare or in micaceous black.
The corners are where the Samurai pays the bill. Front and rear, manoeuvring and off-road: after forty years, an untouched one is hard to find.
The MG Off Road complete kit protects all four at once, with parts built around the real profile of the bodywork.
What it covers
All made from 3+2 aluminium diamond plate: 3 mm base plus 2 mm relief, 5 mm total.
They protect, and they cover
The guard works on two fronts. On sound metal it acts as a barrier: it takes the hit instead of the bodywork, and if badly damaged it gets replaced. On metal that is already marked, it covers the dent and gives the corner a clean line back, without a trip to the body shop.
The diamond relief is not just a look: the pressed pattern stiffens the plate, so at equal thickness it resists bending better than a flat surface.
Aluminium, not steel
Aluminium does not rust. A painted steel guard, once chipped, starts corroding exactly where mud and salt sit — and passes the rust on to the panel underneath. That problem does not arise here.
Rear guards cut and welded to follow the profile
The Samurai's rear corner is not a simple curve. A 5 mm plate cannot follow it by bending alone: either you approximate it with a panel that never sits flush, or you cut it and weld it.
We chose the second. Every rear guard is cut in half and re-welded to reproduce the real curvature of the body and sit flush across the whole surface.
The weld stays visible on the diamond relief: that is what a part built around the real profile looks like, rather than a simplified version of it.
Available finishes
Two rear versions
The Samurai's rear profile differs between soft top and hard top: the guards follow the bodywork, so the two versions are not interchangeable.
Select yours from the menu above. If you are unsure which one your vehicle needs, get in touch before ordering. The front guards are identical on both body styles.
Installation
Fitting can be done two ways:
A note on fitting
The Samurai was built for over twenty years, and after decades of use, repairs and replaced panels, no two of them share exactly the same corner radius.
Depending on your vehicle's bodywork, some minor adjustment may be needed during installation. This is the normal condition for this type of product, and is stated by overseas manufacturers of the same item.
Designed and built entirely in Italy, in our workshop in the Apennines.
