    You might want to check the 348/355 section.
    Doing a search will turn up a few threads on the topic.

    Don't do it. Here's why:

    The skid plates make a part of the car rigid that shouldn't be rigid. If you have the skid plates installed and you hit it a certain way, you'll crack the front bumper or worse, even rip it off the car. If you're gonna drive the thing, your best bet is to leave it as is. You'll wind up painting the bumper anyway and repairing the scrapes under the lip isn't that big of a deal.
