Gearbox & Engine Skid Plate for Lexus ES 300h (2012-2018) VI generation (GSV50) incl. Facelift | Kolchuga®
Introducing the Kolchuga® skid plate for the Lexus ES 300h (2012-2018) VI generation (GSV50), crafted from robust 2 mm thick steel. This protection serves as a formidable shield for your engine and gearbox, ensuring they remain safeguarded against the harshest road conditions. Designed to absorb impacts, it minimizes the risk of damage from debris and obstacles encountered on the road.
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 provides comprehensive coverage for the engine and gearbox, effectively shielding these critical components from damage. Its construction includes reinforcing ribs and strategically placed ventilation openings to enhance airflow and prevent overheating. Additionally, many models feature service access openings that allow for quick oil and filter changes without the need for removal.
Kolchuga® protection is specifically designed to guard against impacts from rocks, ice, and road debris. This robust shield not only protects but also reduces the risk of corrosion and improves aerodynamics, contributing to better fuel efficiency. Installation is straightforward, mounting directly to the factory points without any drilling or modifications required.
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.
