Gearbox & Engine Skid Plate for Toyota Camry (2011-2017) VII generation (XV50) incl. Facelift | Kolchuga®
Protect your Toyota Camry (2011-2017) VII generation (XV50) with the Kolchuga® skid plate, designed to offer robust protection for your engine and gearbox. This protection is made from 2 mm thick steel, serving as a reliable shield against potential damage from road hazards. With its durable construction, it ensures that critical components remain safe from impacts, providing peace of mind during your drives.
The main Kolchuga® protection panel is made from high-quality steel with a thickness of 2 mm. Steel protection is available with two coating options, providing different levels of corrosion protection.
| Coating | Protection Technology | Purpose and Benefits | Corrosion Warranty |
|---|---|---|---|
| WhiteCover® | Hot-dip galvanizing (compliant with EN ISO 1461). | Reliable and long-lasting coating. Ideal for vehicles with very intensive use (e.g., commercial vehicles). | Up to 24 months |
| ZiPoFlex® | Premium combination: Hot-dip galvanizing + Polymer painting + Polymer lacquer. | The ultimate solution for any, even the most demanding operating conditions (corrosivity category C5). | Up to 36 months |
This skid plate covers the engine and gearbox areas, providing comprehensive protection. Its construction features reinforcing ribs that enhance rigidity and shock absorption, ensuring that impacts are effectively mitigated. Additionally, strategically placed ventilation openings maintain optimal temperature management, while service access openings allow for quick oil and filter changes when necessary.
Kolchuga® protection effectively guards against damage from rocks, ice, dirt, curbs, and speed bumps. By preventing punctures to crucial components, it significantly reduces the risk of costly repairs. Installation is straightforward, as the skid plate mounts directly to the factory points without the need for drilling or modifications.
How does Kolchuga® protection differ from the factory one? The factory (stock) protection is typically a plastic dust cover (splash guard) or thin composite material. Its main function is protection from dirt and dust. In contrast, Kolchuga® protection is a durable metal plate (steel or aluminum) that serves as a mechanical shield. It provides reliable protection from impacts against rocks, branches, or open manholes. The key difference: Factory protection guards against dirt, while Kolchuga® guards against impact.
