So....skid plates.

They really take a beating in rally! They need to cover bumper to trans.

These photos are from an e30 on this landing. I'm sure there was damage before this but the Aluminum grabs and bends. They broke there oil pan. DNF. I'm hoping the Ti sheet will "sled" along my undercarriage.

1series has some nice subframe points for attachment. I order some 24/48" .05 sheet TITANIUM! Replaceable sheet for its hardness and light weight. $70 each I got two a spare.

I was recommended 5052 1/4 for the mass of the plate. It will fill 24" in the middle scoop area and go 48" back. I don't want any bolt head showing so I'm going to have to get creative. the aluminum will bolt and have torx countersunk bolts. The Ti over sheet could hook and bolt under the bumper lip of the front edge of aluminum, and at the rear turn 90° and bolt to a bracket.
