Forester 25 Wilderness skid plate

The stock skid plate is almost useless. I was parking on the side of a dirt road, slowly rolled into and onto a rock. No resistance, ripped out one bolt and tore some tabs out. (Left side)

I just replaced it and once I took it off, I bent it with my hand.

Forster 25 Wilderness Rallitek Extreme Front Skid Plate

Just installed this, did it solo. Took about an hour.

If doing it solo, start the back bolts first.

At the front, it didn’t seem like it would fit if it was over the front bumper. I ended up lapping it over the back lip of the front bumper and cutting off a couple tabs to get it flush.

Also, there’s these side tabs, it lines up with the wheel well tabs. The tabs don’t work with the 1/4” aluminum. Thinking of zip tying them?
