Just about got this product finished up. To install the skid plate you will remove panels "A" and "B" as in picture below. The new skid plate has shims riveted to it to account for the panels being removed. The new skid plate then mounts using (4) holes marked with "X" in picture. The two holes in the rear are countersunk.
Most vipers we've worked have panels A and B already mangled, so rather than requiring customers to flatten their existing plates out we felt it was better to do away with them.
At 3/16" thick, this plate will provide superior protection to the front tunnel cooler and engine oil pan, and still be easily removable for oil changes!
Final retail is going to be $85 for natural finish.

I can not see the images, will the plates fit 2014 RTX? How much testing have you done and how much do the plates weigh?Just about got this product finished up.

Yes. 4 bolts and it's off. nothing needs to be removed to get plate off other than the fasteners.


Yup looks good!
