Thanks ej! Me and my bro in law juss installed the skidplate this weekend.. it looks great! My plate sits an inch below the oil pan, so I would have to hit something pretty hard to bent the plate and get to the oil pan. Great design and gives me some peace of mind. Thanks agian!

I'll just repost my PM response:
I launch off that plate probably 4-5 times a week living in Chicago and its held up wondrously.
However, this time was from train tracks and really shitty pavement. The tracks launched the front end up, and all the weight of the car came right down on this pavement mound via the skidplate.
I think the plate has been beaten to the point where it was pretty much up against the oil pan, so the impact just transferred right to the pan.
It got me thinking though - what if you added some bushings to the top side of the skid plate, between the plate and oil pan? Basically small rubber cylinder bushings, only attached to the skid plate, right underneath the closest contact points of the oil pan. That way if you do really whack something with the pan, the impact between the skid plate and oil pan interaction is absorbed through the bushings. you might need a new skid plate, but at least you wouldn't need a new skid plate and oil pan.
No pics yet. Assessing the damage this weekend.

It'd just be as simple as drilling a couple extra holes in the plate, and adding a couple rubber bushings and bolts/nuts.Custom Made Skid Plates For Sale.
