    Lots, straight from the factory.
    You’re better of buying steel and aftermarket. I think the TRD aluminum one looks badass. I thought it would be great and work well. It protected the truck, but it bent super easily. check out what RCI and some of the others have to offer.

    Here is why I don’t recommend the aluminum turd...

    These are the beefiest in the market with .250" steel. A bit heavy but the last you'll buy. On sale until tomorrow, too.

    What's a badass looking skidplate you can buy? I like the toyota ones as they look real good with the truck.

    Whatever it is, just do steel the first time. Might be a little extra weight, but the Aluminum ones can break with any hit.

    Just a better investment.

    I'm telling you, buy your second skid plate first from BAMF.
