The factory skid plate is only plastic and give zero protection, it's more of a splash pan than a skid plate. OffTrac and other's have steel skid plates. I fabbed up some tubes for my skid plate, I still need to add a couple more tubes.

This shows mine as it is now...

I think its hard to beat what RCI offers without fabbing one yourself.
 






Fixed pictures from above post. Still haven't figured out how to do it from my phone.
