Default Aluminum skid plate fit

Will aluminum skid plates off a 1995 blazer four door fit on a 2003 blazer four door or will I have to modify them to fit. And is $200 a good price for the engine skid plate, front differential skid plate and transfer skid plate as a package

They will fit but I don't think I'd pay $200 for them. I have seen a few sets around here for under $50!

+1 on the price being too high. $50-$60 is the most I'd pay on Craigslist or classifieds. I picked up my carbon fibre set from Pick-n-Pull for $15, but I think that's because the girl couldn't find them in the computer.

I'm fairly certain that the bolt holes do not line up, so to make them work would require some drilling and fabrication.

I found some super lift skid plates on eBay 3124 Superlift Skid Plate | eBay
Will they mount up even though I don't have a super lift kit? I have the 2.5" RC KIT

I'd send the seller a message and ask them. It doesn't say on the ad that it's to be used with the SL 6" suspension lift kit, and it seems to imply that it would work with any standard S-series truck.
