They're metal--old U-bolts, actually. After Eric cut out the directional holes for the PIAA's, we drilled holes for the U-bolts, inserted them through about 1/2" and then welded them in place. I really like them, they work well at protecting the lights and they give my X a little "Mad-Max" flavor.

You can see them a little better in this picture, which Swampwrecker got at the last MAXC outing.
