A few days ago I got around to cutting the lower portion of my front fascia off. Like all the cool kids seem to be doing. But I was wondering if anyone had made a radiator/front suspension skid plate?

heres my first one I made back in 05
worked great in keeping dirt and crap out of the front skid
Of course mine ran off of the ARB, but also bolted to the bottom of the radiator support
not the best picture but you get the idea

Thanks! The frame is made of 1" and 3/4" square tubing. The sheet metal is from a commercial wall access door. It's attached to the front frame cross member and to the factory engine skid plate.
