    I remember a thread on someone who manufactured scuff plates for 355 and 360's out of aluminum or some other material. I did a search but can't seem to find a link. Does anyone know who is making these? Thanks.

    I have Paul Hill's alum scuff plates on my 355. Great product. :)

    Thanks guys. Do these go onto stock mounting holes? Do they go over the existing plastic scuff plates or do you remove those first? Any special tools needed?

    As far as i know, the scuff plates go right over the existing ones and screw straight into stock holes. A quick look at Paul's website doesn't show CS plates available yet, Doody. I know he's working on them. Maybe an email from you will have desired effect ;)

    They actually mount over the factory skid plates. You have to drill new holes, install takes about an hour.

    Titanium will give you nice sparks when they hit the road, and Aluminum won't.

    So far I have been directed to Hill Engineering in the UK, which makes aluminum skid plates for the 360 at 99GBP and titanium for 149GBP per set. I have also seen Pinnacle Motorsports' product (USA). Does anyone have experience mounting either of these products (or another vendor's product) on a 360?

    From what I can make out, the 355 plates require drilling, but the 360 plates are supposed to be a direct bolt-on. Any feedback is appreciated. The car is going in for nose respray next week and I'd like to mount the plates as soon as the paint is dry.
