My machine routinely "grazes" the sand in G-outs and it caved in the little skid on the front bumper (within 1/2" of the winch) so when I was shopping for a skid plate, I wanted one that went more forward and protected the winch too.
The only one I found was the Factory UTV unit. It is about 12" longer up front and "curls" up the front bumper. Kind of like a ski, slides over everything real nice. They do something very similar on their Pioneer skid too.
I'm surprised that no one else does this, it only makes sense...
