Default Mopar front skid

Is the Mopar front skid (the steel accesory one) worth it, or is it too light.
Any one know the thickness of the metal?

Its 3/16 and I think it does a good job of prtecting the E-disconnect.

Yep, its the mopar and its black e-coated just like their off road bumpers. Its kinda dirty and wet in the pics, plus I think the flash makes it looks a little odd.

Here's another (please ignore the stump )

I have the Mopar front skidplate too, and I think it's definitely heavy duty.

If you don't have the Edisco, it's a waste of $$$.
