Default Who likes hte new front skid plate and who doesnt?

I seriously extremly dislike the new front pieces (skid plates) on the new H3's i think it looks dumb. It sticks out like a sore thumb in that color, it looks like it doesnt belong. I espiaclly dont like it becuase it makes the car seem less rugged then it did before. Anyway what are your thoughts on it?

I think you get used to it... this truck will see the rocks and mud off road but that doesn't mean I did not want it to look good... with all of the front chrome, 20" tires and off road lights you hardly notice the front plate..

Not sure how the old one was put together but the new one is in two pieces and I think wraps around a little more than last years, I liked the H3 stamp also, what can you do?...
I just painted the "bumper" part of it and now wonder if I should have done the whole stinking thing.
