It is what it is.

Does anybody know what these plastic skid plates official names are? Just want to be able to order one, and cant find the exact name for the part # for a 99 Corolla.

might want to consider replacing the plastic ones with something beefier. Something like a budbuilt will cost more, but I'd definitely consider getting one since you're going to be putting money into replacing the cheap plastic ones anyways

Here is a couple pics of my blonde

It would be sweet if they made some beefy aftermarket skidplate for the corolla, she needs it.

Im going with rocker panel

It's not a skid plate, it's for airflow.

That being said, I took the one off of my car, and sold it.

Lol Well Nice truck and 4runner. O the fiance was nice to. Handled that gun well haha.

But for the think. Im guessing you are talking about the plastic that hangs down under the front bumper? it is for Airflow and downforce. They are virtually useless in all sense and I wouldn't even bother replacing it. On the other hand. All stealership and quote price. Get Part # and go online and see if you can find cheaper. That is if you wanna replace it. I used to have one on my CRX till i parked on top of a parking block. That took care of that
