Skid Plates
BMWs, just like many other makes, only include plastic under-body shields and are often vulnerable on the underside of the engine bay to debris in the road, track, and off road rally courses. When the vehicles are lowered, they also become vulnerable to damage when bottoming out on high spots in the road, drive ways, and other business entrances. This can pose a serious problem if the oil pan and other sensitive components are damaged when this happens. Cracks in the oil pan could result in a destroyed motor if the oil is allowed to completely leak out and any number of bushings, steering components, or exposed fluid lines could easily be ripped out of place, compromising the safety and control of the vehicle.
To prevent this, Race Skids provides a range of Heavy Duty Skid Plates for many classic BMW models. Constructed from heavy duty 10-gauge steel, these skid plates provide a much needed upgrade to under-body protection, helping to absorb the the impact of debris or the road itself to the bottom of the vehicle. This helps ensure that the oil pan and other components are left completely intact, keeping you on the road with no worries.
An added benefit of these Heavy Duty Skid Plates is a black powder coated surface. This protects the plate itself from oxidation and corrosion, gives the plate a smooth scratch resistant surface, and makes it much easier to clean and maintain, allowing you to simply spray or wipe away built up dirt, salt, or any other build up.
Included with the Skid Plate is all needed mounting hardware. These too are corrosion resistant to allow for easy installation and removal of the skid plate for needed maintenance to the vehicle.

Whether your MINI is lifted, lowered, or at stock height, the M7 Skid Plate serves as a cost-effective insurance policy for your vehicle. This meticulously designed and manufactured skid plate, created by M7 Speed, is compatible with all R55-R59 MINIs. Crafted as a functional work of art, it undergoes CAD design and CNC computer laser cutting in the USA, using 1/8" (3mm) thick military-grade aluminum plate.
MINI R50 R52 R53 Heavy Duty Skid Plate provides superior protection for the underside of the engine bay compared to standard factory-installed skid panels. While factory skid panels are typically made from ABS plastic and offer basic protection against dirt and light debris, they fall short when it comes to impact resistance. This heavy-duty skid plate is crafted from 10-gauge steel, offering robust defense against large or heavy debris and impacts, particularly beneficial for lowered vehicles.
The heavy-duty skid plate prevents damage to the oil pan and engine bay from bottoming out, curb impacts, and debris. Its steel construction ensures durability through varying seasons and engine heat cycles, significantly reducing the risk of cracking or deformation. The powder-coated finish enhances resistance to oxidation and corrosion, making maintenance easier and extending the life of the plate.
