Gearbox & Engine Skid Plate for Lexus RX 300 (2003-2009) II generation (XU30) | Kolchuga®
Protect your Lexus RX 300 (2003-2009) II generation (XU30) with Kolchuga® skid plates, expertly crafted from 2 mm thick steel. This robust protection serves as a mechanical shield for your engine and gearbox, ensuring that critical components remain safe from damaging impacts. With Kolchuga®, you gain peace of mind knowing your vehicle is equipped to withstand the rigors of the road, acting as a formidable barrier against potential hazards.
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 protection covers both the engine and gearbox, ensuring that vital components are shielded from external threats. The construction includes reinforcing ribs for added strength and ventilation openings that promote optimal airflow, preventing overheating. Additionally, many models feature service access openings, allowing for easy maintenance without removing the shield.
Kolchuga® skid plates protect against impacts from rocks, ice, dirt, curbs, and speed bumps. The installation process is straightforward, as the protection mounts directly to the factory points without the need for drilling or modifications. This not only enhances mechanical protection but also reduces corrosion and improves aerodynamics.
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.
