Version 3 Atlas skid plate by Evolution Import, Inc. for Mk4 VWs. At stock height most VW oil pans have only a few inches of ground clearance, even less on lowered cars. Protect your fragile oil pan from hazards such as road debris, manhole covers, and speed bumps. In recent revisions, Evolution has added two strengthening ribs and made the plate compatible with all engine types for the model years listed below. It features a cutout for the TDI oil drain cover plate available here.
