Is your plate flush or does it wrap around the protectors somewhat?

It started out with the flange wrapped around the protectors extending up to the bottom of the tunnel but I was concerned about heat so I cut off most of it leaving about 12" at the rear. I could have bent each flange to 45 degree instead of 90 creating wings that would extend toward the corners leaving a gap for air flow but how I did it accomplished the result I was looking for... No Ice!

If you attach the aluminum to the bottom of the protectors I would think that would work allot better than just covering up the exhaust with the block off plate. After I installed the block off plate it helped some but the snow would still melt and it would build up on the protectors and I stll had the big chunks fallin off and jammin in my tunnel. I removed the protectors but left the ones on my front exchanger alone. Did the trick for me. Recommend 100% Oh and its free!

If you plan to install a bigger lugged track anywhere in the future you might as well remove the tunnel protectors right away..
