    anyway, with that said, ejnight's skidplates are extremely well made and fit perfectly. they've saved me from a few disasters, and its kinda cool seeing all the marks on the skidplate, seeing it still in great condition, and knowing that it would be other parts of your car taking the brunt of the damage if it weren't there.
    Well I would like one for the M20 and I will be swapping. So that is why I was considering the peerless...

        get the one from ejnight. u can get the 24 valve plate, the only difference is the drain plug hole is in a slightly different place.

                EJnight's plates are less expensive and require no welding. Plus, I like the look. Less 4x4 if you ask me.

                  ejnight I believe has made few iX skidplates. Peerless doesn't have any iXes close by to measure up for a skidplate, so he hasn't made one for it yet.

                    Factory skid plate works well too.

                          is peerless on thiS? have you guys seen the cinder block vid? if ejnight posts one, i'll buy, if not, i'm sick and tired of paying for pans, and replacing them, so the other one like humvee tough, and right now, in quebec its' pothole season again, and three inch drops on the highway, yes highway, have killed the driving in a lowered car..

                            I want to see someone test out the ejnight skid plate. Ram something into the skid plate and test it's durability! That is... if you trust it enough!

                              i'm not about to try some raised manhole or anything, but i did hit a huge fucking rock that i thought would clear the middle of my car and boy was i wrong. anyway, the weight of the car was basically supported on the ejnight skidplate for a moment as it was pushing the rock down into the road. it has some scratches on it but that is all. it is really an awesome investment.

                                I have one of ejnights, skidplates. It was a easy install and saved me from curb height speedbumps near my moms place and a couple of NYC potholes already! I can take pics if you want, it was barely nicked! Much better than paying for a new oilpan.
