				Hey there ! 
I just wanted to let everybody who wanted a skid plate know that i am waiting for the new plates as we speak !!! I pulled the trigger on getting 10 more made up .
My cost went up quite a bit.........BUT, i will only be raising the price $5 !! 
The cost will $175  with hardware. I am getting them made in smooth aluminum.
There are currently 50 of these installed happily on Delicas . Soon to be 60 !!
I Still can't believe i did this and i would like to again extend a warm thank you to all people in our great bunch of delicaphiles !!!
I will look back to the other various posts and see who is getting one this batch. If you could come out of the woodwork and let me know if you want one still, that would be great.
cheers isaac

				I can attest to how good they look. Can't attest to their function, since I haven't abused my Deli much since I put it on. Although it does make it a pain to get at on of the relays for my DRLs, since it is on the underside of the body, I have to remove the fishslapper skidplate and the stock skidplate to get at it.

Of course. Not a problem !! 
I do have to say i like these ones as well. I do like the look of the smooth ones.
Although I would be hard pressed to pick a favorite .
