I didn't use gutter gaurd. I used expanded metal or what some call stucko mesh. When I went to Home Depot I couldn't find any gutter gaurd in the right size. This stuff worked really well but it's sharp so wear leather gloves.

I used the stucko mesh too. It seems more durable than the gutter guard. I could only find it in a big as piece. I have enough for like 4 cars. It only cost like $3. Looks real clean.

Ths isht I bought from home depot was called 'Premium Hinged Gutter Guards' manufactured by Gutter World. Came in a pack of five, the size is just about perfect (6 inches x 3 feet). Requires minimal cutting and the stuff wont rip you hands apart like the lathe sheets. Looks clean as hell too. Just ask a sales represenatative.
