Metal heelguards?

I just took mine off, i didnt think they did anything in the 1st place. But if ya wanted to, you could cut and bend a piece o sheet metal and drill some holes for the bolts. Shoulnt take too long...maybe
 
i just like handgaurds for the looks. they havent helped me with sh*t all. only thing would be the ones on my dads muddin yammy that help ya from branches.
