Default Front Skid Plate options

I have the Rugged Ridge XHD system on my 2008 Jeep Wrangler Sahara. Now that I have put 35's on her the front needs a skid plate. Problem is many of them are bumper specific. Does anyone know of one that works with the XHD and where to find. THanks for the help.

Expedition One makes a Rubi Skid that does not mount to the bumper, so can be used with other bumpers. I am using one with my Poison Spyder bumper. Here it is:

Or-Fab makes one to protect the Rubi-ESD that attaches to the crashbar only.

X2! RR makes a skid to pair with the XHD Bumper.

Thanks for all the responses. The skid Row only works with the factory bumper. The RR is probably the way I am going to go. Just wanted to see if there were other options.

I'm probably one of the few who have had both the Rugged Ridge and the OR-Fab and can say the OR-Fab is the way to go...check out my write up!
