Hit a Possum: Metal Skid Plate Available?
I hit a Possum doing 60mph. My Yaris took it well, but since I have to replace some liners and panels, I wanted to look into a metal skid guard. Does anyone know if there is a skid guard that fits the 2015/2016 body style. Thanks!

Do a search on Google. Someone may make one or people may have made their own.
Actually your collision with the possum while unfortunate, is rare and unlikely to happen again.

Preexisting in the market, I highly doubt it. Even for Gen2 models, the only one I'm aware of was a limited run commissioned by MicroImage.

I thought I'd at least check, I'm always up for improving my car.
Bronson: I hope it doesn't happen again, however I traverse about 300-400miles/month of agricultural roads in extreme south Florida. The next time it could be a bear!!!

I drove across FL on Gator Ally in 75.

Hit an armadillo in Arkansas back in 1985, broke an axle. If the possum didn't do any damage, consider yourself lucky...
