I added a small chunk to the top of my skid plate to my bumper to stop snow and mud from getting in my engine bay. 3/32 thickness i believe.

It would make a hell of a cargo liner for the back of your blazer.

i think a full skid plate would be sick, still thinking maybe putting some on the frame too not sure though

I like the front skid plate to bumper idea, it will help on going over stuff and not getting hung up.
