    Skid Plates! Save your M3s undercarriage!

    NEW - Turner E9X M3 Aluminum Skid Plate


    When it comes to the E9x M3 one of the most frustration maintenance points is oddly belly pan replacement.
    Since its low to the ground, the belly plans end up being an easy target for curb stops, inclines, and other road debris.
    The plastic material used in construction from the factory make this piece lightweight, but at the price of very limited strength.



    The engineers at Turner decided that they could design a strong skid plate and still be able to maintain the complex aero features found on the OE belly pan.
    We chose to use 3/16” thick 5052 Aluminum in the center and 1/8" thick aluminum side plates to get the most strength and maintain a reasonably lightweight for the skid plate portions, left, right, & center.
    The center plate design contains the same vent feature to maintain the intended design from the factory.
    We even raised the plates up higher to further reduce the chance of impact.



    This is all held together with 1018 steel brackets and a special fastener installed into the frame rails for maximum rigidity.
    All of this is protected using wrinkle black powder coat finish to maintain a sleek appearance and protect against corrosion.
