I have some. The shop that I bought them from has since closed, but I'll try to see if I can get a brand...

Most of those can cause more damage than they prevent ... they don't attach very sturdily, and can get caught/ripped off on stuff.

Mine work pretty well LOL:

I like yours,
but X2 on what he said...They ended up causing more damage than they prevented on my Tacoma when I snagged a branch on one with out realizing it and backed up--popped out the tail light and ripped the fender flare off..

Note that the rear exo is a lot cheaper than the glass it protects (which if you can't find one in a junkyard are $427.19 dealer only item)
