Just a word of warning. Use 'Never-Seize' on all of the bolts into the frame.

This is 23# of weight that you do not really need on your Mini unless you rally, in my opinion.

Or if you are of the "low and slow" persuasion.

steel skid plate

Well it is actually 22.5 lbs and the best money I have spent for protection on the mini. It has saved my car 3 times. 1)came around a corner mini style faster than I should, someones muffler in the middle of the lane car coming the other way centered it drove over it no damage. 2) Neighbor auto xing for the first time went off track into giggle weeds high centered on skid plate no major damage just scuffed bumper. 3) Wife spun out on ice smacked center curb/planter strip skid plate buckled absorbed lot of the impact.
