unless it is going to be a mall queen, why not just spray paint a skid plate

if you get a black one it will get scratched when you go off road

The factory one that comes stock is worthless tin. Get yourself something decent and spray it. Options:

- AllPro
- BudBuilt (when they're available, and the first set is MINE! )
- Downey
- Toyota TRD

There are some others too. Of course, you could always just grab a Stop sign and bend it to fit!
