The RIVAL 4x4 Engine (Part 2) Bash Plate delivers precision-engineered protection for the rear section of your engine bay — extending protection to cover the full length of your powerplant.

The engine bay on these vehicles is large, matching the substantial V8 powerplants, and requires two-part protection to cover completely.
