    I believe that his are fiberglass and the one he made for me is exceptional!
    Thanks for the kind words Mile High.

    Got your email Daly. That photo is one of Ron's (VX Concepts) Plastic Skid plates, very nice product along with the other items he did, but unfortunately he shut down his operations. Mine is the same except of fiberglass, but I don't have the fake screws in the top. Of course you could take the LDub approach.

    How does yours attach? I thought the screws were for real (guess I didn't read Dub's installation thread very carefully). 3M body tape maybe?

    Without fastening anything to the cladding, the two main attachment points are the stock licence plate bracket fastening locations.

    See this pic...


    I removed the bracket & used a couple of long stainless screws to fasten John's front skid + the licence plate bracket that I fabbed up out of scrap aluminium.

    Like Dub said, two screws at the license plate area and then two underneath the cladding...







    Hope this helps. It really is easy and I love the look and quality.
