Gray powder coat, 3/16" steel construction and a shape that wraps around the pan and bolts to the block and bell housing.
I have been looking at oil pan skids for a while and settled on this skid from nth Degree Mobility. Unlike other skids it is one piece and bolts up to the engine and bell housing. It offers good protection and accesss to the drain plug in such a way that still allows you to drain the oil without much trouble. I also bought a drain valve to replace the drain plug, but since I had just changed the oil before I got this skid plate it has not been installed, yet.
