| Coating | Protection Technology | Purpose and Benefits | Corrosion Warranty |

This skid plate provides comprehensive coverage for the engine and gearbox, ensuring that these vital components are shielded from potential damage. The construction includes reinforcing ribs for added rigidity and ventilation openings that maintain optimal cooling. Additionally, service access openings allow for easy maintenance without the need to remove the protection.
Kolchuga® protection effectively guards against impacts from rocks, ice, and road debris. It enhances aerodynamics, potentially improving fuel efficiency while reducing road noise for a more comfortable ride. Installation is straightforward, requiring no drilling or modifications, as it mounts directly to the factory points.
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.
