Looking for a good aftermarket skidplate
 
I figure this is the right spot to ask. Recently my '96 Blazer had a run in with a roadsign and as a result, i've basically had to replace the front end. Now, all I have left at this point is bumper + valance and the plastic skidplate that protects the oil filter and whatnot in the front.

Thing is, while I could just put on a factory bumper and factory plastic skidplate, I was thinking of taking this opportunity to upgrade. I'm basically looking for a metal pre-runner style skidplate + nerf bar setup, something that would protect the front suspension and oil filter and probably replace the front bumper or at least come up under it.

Something like that, essentially, only made for a Blazer obviously. Are there any good aftermarket metal skidplates for the S10 Blazers, or would I likely have to find a good machinist and have something custom made? Also, what would a good estimate be in terms of cost?

If it were me I'd fab my own (or if you don't have the tools/know how then find someone who can). That way you can get exactly what you want/need and it might even work out to be cheaper for you. Custom work is always more rewarding too :)
