Designed to be tougher than nails, the Borne Off-Road Skid Plates are constructed from 5/32-inch plate steel and are ready to take whatever abuse you can to throw at them. We’ve taken steps to provide superior protection and strength. We have added additional mounting points, all of which are recessed to provide a smooth bottom surface to eliminate the potential to shear off or get hardware caught on obstacles. All edges and corners are reinforced and bent at 80-degrees to provide even greater strength. All of our skid plates utilize existing mounting points so you don’t need to cut, drill, or weld to install. To ensure a long-lasting and durable finish, they are first electroplated via electro-galvanization and then powdercoated black. All our skid plates are direct-fit and include all required hardware for the easiest possible installation with only basic hand tools.
