The F8x M3/M4 models are simply amazing to drive, don't let road debris keep you from enjoying the moment. These cars have so much packed under the hood to get you this experience that it causes the oil cooler to be placed face down to the road. This makes the cooler an easy target for impact since the stock belly pan is designed from flexible plastic material. We've seen stories from small branches, scrap pieces that fell from trucks to large ice chunks that impact the cooler immediately draining the car of its oil. If you don't catch this right away this could cause serious internal engine damage from oil starvation. Turner's in-house engineering team designed a skid plate to protect your oil cooler from these unfortunate situations and still maintain a stock-like architecture. The idea was to design something much stronger that still keeps the weight to a minimum, using 8 GA 5052 Aluminum covered their goal coming in at only 5 lbs. Since the Turner skid plate weighs only 3 lbs more than the plastic OE piece, this makes the Turner plate the lightest metal option on the market. This skid plate requires no modification and mounts using the existing factory hardware the OE belly pan was fastened with. Using a trim seal to press against the oil cooler allows the airflow to pull heat from the cooler like a vacuum the same way the OE belly pan was designed. Features: Designed to maintain the OE cooling and fitment Manufactured from 8 GA 5052 Aluminum Wrinkle black powder coat finish Maintains factory hardware and mounting points No cutting or modification required 5 lbs total weight, only 3 lbs more than the plastic OE Made in America!
