Hi all, As I get ready to joint the newbie session and pick up the recovery gear, radios etc. I came across this offer for 4mm skid plate full (front, mid and tank), 900aed fitted. I am struggling to confirm if 4mm is enough protections. The offer is great and I know I am not planning any extreme trips or driving to the limits so am keen for advise. thanks again all. Posting again to ensure I follow the rules (apologies admins)

Hi During my last Friday drive at Al Qudra, the base plate of my FJ 2013 model, got completely bent while recovering on reverse. I had to get it removed as fixing this back doesn’t seem to be a good idea now. I have shared pictures of the plate and the view from down now. My request for an expert advice is about 1) whether a similar base plate is advisable (keeping in mind that this was done by dealer themself for a few years of FJ models and not directly from Toyota)? 2) is it ok to continue off roading (mostly desert for now) without this plate? Picture shared with view of base. 3) is it required to have such extra protection, either another base plate of this kind or other types of skid plates available outside in the market (steel / aluminum) or its a nice to have stuff? I would appreciate guidance from my fellow Carnity members or our expert leaders please.
