Skid plate (cover plate)

Looking for a center and driver side skid plate for a 2000 VW beetle. Mine broke off and I am not looking to pay a huge price from the dealership. Anyone?

Can't have mine.

You could check for an OEM parts discounter...probably your only bet, unless you want to go to a junk yard.

The plastic one is a total waste of time. It doesn't do anything. Just get a hard aluminum one for cheaper than the OEM plastic one. The metal one actually will protect from an impact. The plastic ones just sag lower and lower and eventually fall off. Useless.

Where do I get these? I agree the plastic ones are a bit weak since mine shattered easily? I would apreciate some direction.
