          I've had coilovers and this skid plate on my car for 4 days, It's already paid for it self. Top quality product, amazing customer service. 5 stars all around.

            Are any of your plates lower profile (better ground clearance) than the others? I have a custom oil pan that sits higher than the bottom of the subframe but I'd still like the added insurance of a plate but I also want to keep my added ground clearance and don't totally want to reinvent the wheel. Got anything for me?

              Worth the money, if youre on the fence Maybe my experience will help you decide. I'm still driving around thanks tho the plate.

                That's a pretty unique situation. The M10 plate is the lowest profile I make, it has about 1/2" more ground clearance than the M20 plate. Obviously the drain hole location would be different.

                Thanks Tony! Your pictures are awesome! It's pretty incredible that your oil pan survived.

                    I have these installed on both my e30s and I couldn't be happier with them. Very fast shipping time, simple to install, and its a great feeling not constantly worrying about how low your pan is. A definite must if you're going low

                      Will it work on a ford 5.0 v8 302 swap?

                        Not sure. PM me, we might be able to work something out.

                          Looky what was waiting for me at the door! The quality on this is better than I was expecting, and the plasma etched logo is a very nice look on this!

                            The car's almost done, it's time to make sure it stays off jack stands.

                              I just had to add to this thread that this skid plate has saved my poor little oil pan no less than 3 times already. Great product and super fast shipping.

                                Another testimonial. Bottomed out hard last night on some new and poorly lit local road construction. Skid plate is scuffed but the m42 pan is intact.
