Gearbox & Engine Skid Plate for Acura TLX (2020-) II generation (UB5/6/7) | Kolchuga®
Protect your Acura TLX (2020-) II generation (UB5/6/7) with the Kolchuga® skid plate, expertly crafted from 2 mm thick steel. This robust protection acts as a shield for your engine and gearbox, defending against the harsh impacts of the road. Designed for durability, this skid plate ensures that your vehicle's critical components remain safe from damage caused by obstacles and road debris.
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 specifically covers the gearbox and engine, ensuring maximum protection for these vital components. It features reinforcing ribs that enhance rigidity and impact absorption, while ventilation openings maintain optimal airflow for cooling. Additionally, service access openings allow for quick oil and filter changes without removing the protection.
This protection effectively shields your vehicle from rocks, ice, dirt, curbs, and speed bumps. Installing this skid plate will provide mechanical protection, reduce corrosion risks, and improve aerodynamics. The installation is straightforward, as it 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.
