Default skid plate suggestions?

looking at putting a new skid plate on my 13, was looking at the p3 carbon but not sure how well they hold up. Maybe plastic like the tmd ones would be better. rather stay away from alloy for the rattle factor. Any experiences or suggestions would help.

I would go for plastic. One of the thick ones 3mm or thicker not one of the crappy thin ones.

If its ec I'll say Hyde combo by far for quality and price. They will pick up a bit of mud and grass from time to time but that is easily overcome and they will last a decade. If you can afford to buy or be given a expansion chamber whenever you want I would only ever have a alloy sump guard like my 4 strokes.

I cracked my stock plate on a log and just bought another for $50. After searching I couldn't find a better price. I also didn't want metal and carbon while pretty would get pretty banged up fast. So I went back to stock.

Enduro Engineering. The fit up is perfect and the thick gage aluminum construction has taken some big hits without failing me.
