I have just gotten my POLISHED SKID PLATE back and all I can say is WOW !
Please goto this link of closed EBAY auction for more information. It took only 5 -10 minutes to remove the 9 bolts and then I shipped it to BRIGHT-LEE METALS (561) 723-6674.
He polised and buffed it to a MIRROR finish.
He is also one of the nicest people I have ever dealt with over the phone. It arrived back in three days. In 5 minutes it was back on and it is awsome. AS good as it looks in the pictures it is even better in real life. Check out this link. I give this guy 5 stars out of 5 !!!!!!
