I thought about gettign one but when I really looked at it, it mounts right onto the same bar the plastic air dam covers so what extra protection are you really getting?

BTW the plastic dam is not for protection, it's only there to provide air flow under the jeep so it's not such a brick.

Take the aire dam off adn see what it does to your gas mileage.

I'm looking at something more like AEV's, more coverage and seems to follow the air dam air flow function

You mean their advertisement plate? Yeah I had one and ended up giving it away to a forum member, and he butt fucked me on the shipping. My advice, save for a real bumper skid combo and don't blow your money on that pos. Also, cause I can't remeber who the fuck I sent it too, a big fuck you to the low life basturd I sent it too who never paid me for the shipping. Yeah, it was my fault, figured I'd give a shout out to the low life retard fucker wishing him the best of getting skull fucked by a weeping green dicked hiv infested donkey herd.

I got sucked into one of these too when I armored up. I didn't get any protection for my e-disco. I guess SRO has a new piece that goes under the e-disco and protects that area. It has brackets come down behind and it attaches there and to the front chassis under their other skid plate. The installer wasn't too happy that it left a gap between where the new plate comes up and the old chassis plate (about 1/2 inch space). He said they didn't seem to craft the new plate to fit snugly against the old plate. Go figure. I just thought I would add it so that I have some protection for the e-disco. Overall though, if I had it to do all over again, I would have looked for a different manufacturer. Between the original plate (around $80) and the new plate ($170) and the installation, the whole shebang ran me about $400. That's a lot of fucking money to still end up with a sort-of half-ass solution.
