Skid plate
Sorry for taking so long to post. Once again school has started back and my mod time has vanished.
Well I have finished my skid plate project and waiting for my kit to get back from paint. Here is one picture of the design.
I have lots more pictures and will post them once my kit is on.

Job Well DONE !!
I'd say your design is 3rd gen from what I originally started with.
I have shaved off my original skid plate supports and will look into what I guess I'll call 4th gen. some time in the next 2 months.
As yourself, time for this project has been difficult to come by.
I can say that what you have done is an improvement on previous designs.
What thickness of steel did you use that is welded to the tow hooks? Looks like they will support the weight if you jacked the car up on them.

To anwser a few questions...
Yes that is a go-ped, my second ride...lol
I used 3/8 steel and it supports the total weight of the car. I can jack my car from one side with no damage.
Yes that is a bar going from one skide plat to the other one. The bar is used for support and it also mounts the bottom of the RMM bumber to the factory plastic under pan.
Thanks for the intrest, please let me know if you guys have any other questions...Sean
