hey guys just about to make a bash plate for the vitara. i have calmini diff drop brackets which sits the diff just below the cross member that it bolts to just curious if i should lower the whole height of the bash plate under the diff like the calmini one or just cut a small hole and cap it where the diff is and sit the rest of it hard against the crossmember to keep it almost flat. |

Why not Run a bit of Flat Bar Below the Crossmember??? it only sits 5 or 10mm max lower. |

i would make to whole think slightly lower. cutting a hole and capping it would create a edge that could get caught up. just out of curiosity, why are you making a bash plate? |
