Ifs bash plate

Anyone got any plans for a bash plate that goes from the bottom of the radiator back to the front diff?
For a 96 ifs sr5, want to make one out of either 3mm stainless or 6mm ally just can't see where I'd bolt it back to protect the diff aswell?
Cheers

Re: Another 3l turbo

probably go back down tommorow and grab it if ya reckon its worth having for that much,
What do you guys reckon about a rebuild? would it be worth it at with 300k on it?
Or should i just chuck it on and hope for the best?
