they are for the 97+ years, idk if they will fit for earlier years, they bolt on the taillights, they are black and made of metal and look pretty beefy

you could put that clear plastic coating on em, kinda like a sticker, but it will only strengthen the plastic/protect from scratches. it wont protect against a tree like the guards. ive used it on headlights for a sportbike once

or you could make a tail light box, buy 2 red-3 way lights, and 2 white lights, you know the cheap round ones, and go to home depot, get some small metal rod, and make your own covers

I would expect they would be more applied toward side impacts. Sliding sideways off a rock/off camber situation, slamming into a tree/another rock. Or on tight trails when you are barely scraping through.
