    skid plates

    Who makes the skid plates for the 85L plastic gas tanks? Is there a Porsche part number? I can't seem to find it.

    Are you asking about a skid plate that covers the entire plastic tank? If so I can't find anyone who makes one. I was going to have some made out of aluminum but haven't done it yet. Steel ones are heavy. The plastic tanks sit low to the ground. Low enough to scrape the ground on uneven pavement. All reasons why I like the steel 100L tanks.

    I don't think the Rennline works with the 85L plastic tank.

    Scott, it was 10-15 years ago I got mine. I believe Zuff is no longer in business.
