I just got my Body Armor front skid plate which I expressly ordered for my Rubi since it seems to cover the sway bar motor really well. However, there are no instructions nor hardware in the box! I had previously bought a Skid Row plate from a friend and that came with hardware! Am I missing something? Does anyone have any experience in putting this piece on to a stock bumper? Any assistance would be appreciated thanks!

Most front skids I've seen bolt into the holes made for the air dam (ugly piece of plastic under the bumper). Have any pics of the e-disco skid plate?

I could get some! I talked with customer service @ 4wd.com and Body Armor customer service...turns out this plate will fit, but you have to trim soe of the bumper on the underside to make it all line up. They are coming out with a new design that should just bolt right on with no trim.
What I find interesting is the Body Armor rep was saying just to send it back and wait for the new one if I did not want to trim. However, I explained that 4wd.com website says that it works no problem on stock bumpers! This is the second order that I have placed with them that there has been a problem...there will not be a third!
