Interested in the front skid plate for a 2015 JKU 4-door Wrangler Rubicon. I currently have the stock plastic bumper, but want to eventually upgrade to the 10A steel Mopar bumper. I'm unclear on the options (steel vs. plastic) for this skid plate. Are they different? Or is it just different mounting hardware? If I got the plastic bumper skid now and installed it and then later upgrade to the steel 10A bumper, would I need a different skid plate?

ויקטור בדיקה

Hey Michael,
Choose the skid plate depending on your Front Bumper Type. if you would upgrade to MOPAR front bumper in the coming future, then we suggest you choose "Steel" in the Bumper Type section, as they all have different bolt points, and the "Plastic" wouldn't fit perfectly on Mopar/Steel Bumper.

Buying Asfir 4X4 Skids online

As mentioned, I've purchased three skid plates from Asfir. The buying process is pretty simple. If you are a Veteran, take advantage of the discount. Skids arrive well packed and with all the hardware for each purchase. I even reused one box to sell one of the skids. Shipping time is acceptable.

Thanks, Marc! We really appreciate your continued support and your three purchases. Great to hear the ordering process, packaging, and shipping have all been a good experience. Thanks for spreading the word about our veteran discount, too!

Fit my Outer Banks with flat tow base plates

Was able to fit the skid plate on my Outer Banks with flat tow hookups with a little reverse engineering. They gave me the ability to be able to return if it didn’t fit, which luckily it did!
