The metal skid plates are easier to remove and put back on than the plastic ones (after the initial install). I need to get one for the Tiguan as it has a plastic oil pan.

The Golf belly pan was lost years ago after hitting too many driveways and parking lot curb stops. I replaced it 2 years ago as the fender liner was also toast (another crub) and any standing water hit by the RF tire ended up on the serpentine belt causing the p/s to stop working for a few seconds. The new one was hanging off again a few months later. I put it back on this Thanksgiving, but my son said it rattled. I took it off again at Christmas and secured the fender liner to the core support to keep the belt dry. I should have bought the full metal jacket protector while they were available.
