Not sure which material and thickness to choose?

Mild steel is great for short term usage 6 to 12 months. After various knocks Mild steel start to crack and rust over time. Stainless Steel is a far superior metal that endure a lot more hits and beach driving. The most popular setup is 3mm stainless, these plates great for general 4wding, will last you for years and give you piece of mind.

    Absolutely stoked with the whole lot from front to back 3mm all the way plus the diff cover!! The rugged x is looking
    a treat

  2. Nathan (verified owner)

    Fast delivery, great fit and tough product

  3. Stuart (verified owner)

    Got the 3 piece, 3mm sections for my N80 to replace the old bent standards that came with the car. Heard from a mate that custom offroad do a stainless steel version and was stoked they had 10% off. So jumped on that.
    They have been put to good use for a month now and are worth their weight on gold. Just knowing that underneath the vehicle is very well protected now makes me feel more secure about going off road and hitting some harder tracks won’t cost me a fortune in repairs or getting stuck in the middle of nowhere because of a slip n slide rock hit.
    One happy customer. Can’t recommend them enough.

    Great customer service and fantastic bash plates highly recommend.

  7. John (verified owner)

    Compared to the stock front bash plate, the stock plate provides more cover and protection, also the bolts that come with the set aren’t stainless steel like the rest of the set causing them to rust in the future. other than that its a good plate.

      Hey John, we dont use stainless bolts because if they fail and the bolt head snaps the are near impossible to get out – Simon

  12. Taiss (verified owner)

    Purchased the set for my 2023 N80. Timely Delivery, great quality. Instructions wouldn’t have hurt but it’s not too hard to work out what goes where. and were easy to install.

  13. Scott Wilson (verified owner)

    Awesome product that adds another level of protection. (Stock factory bash plates are a joke!) fitted up very easily.

  14. Dan Grant (verified owner)

    Great product and easy to install. Stainless is the way to go. My pre-sales query was answered promptly and professionally.

  15. Josh (verified owner)

    Tuff as !! Easy to install 👌

  16. GREG THOMAS (verified owner)

    I got sick and tired of removing my factory bash plates to paint them and panel beat out a few dings. The idea of stainless bash plates is a nobrainer and the thicker 3mm ones offer much more protection and insurance. They lso seem to help retrieval in sand as there are no cross chassis members exposwd to dig into the sand. Great prompt service and delivery too.

  17. Custom Offroad

    Great product, easy to install, saves hours of having to paint the old steel ones every 2 years. Awesome protection to the Hiluxs underbelly. This plate will cover the most delicate part. Thanks Greg Thomas.

  18. Ben Saunderson (verified owner)

    5 Star everyday of the week. The new Lux is sorted, great product and price. Happy travels, happy Christmas!

  19. peter mc dermott (verified owner)

    Hi guys, good value, turned up really fast and fitted the same day, awesome, ready for summer and some awesome trips.

  20. AJ Flores (verified owner)

    Great quality and worth the money.

  21. Karl Warne (verified owner)

    I originally bought the two plates a few years ago for my 2018 Hilux SR5. Wanted a bit more protection and just bought the transmission plate. They all fit so well and easy to install. Also easy to remove for maintenance on my vehicle. Highly recommend them. Great protection.

  22. Sid Quintal (verified owner)

    Great quality product and simple to install. Looks the goods too.

  23. Sidonio Quintal (verified owner)

    Great quality product and simple to install. Looks the goods too.

  24. Andrew (verified owner)

    Full set of 3mm plates bought for my 2016 Hilux. Fitting was very simple and took only three beers. Used a trolley jack to help hold transmission plate up whilst fitting, otherwise just lifted the rest by hand. Fitted perfectly with ARB Summit bullbar. Looks great, and nice to support a local company.

  25. Mayson W (verified owner)

    Arrived super quickly and super easy to install. Great quality leaving me with a good peace of mind taking it off-road.

  26. Brady (verified owner)

    Purchased a full kit for my 2016 hilux and the look great and are an easy diy fit. Also they far out do the stock plates well recommend for those that want decent underbody protection.

  27. Justin (verified owner)

    Purchased a full set of 3mm for my 2018 rugged. They fit easily with the genuine Toyota Bullbar and look like great quality. Pretty straight forward to fit on your own but i’d recommend you have a set of ramps and a creeper. (I bought a cheap set from repco and that made it heaps easier as it’s pretty cramped even with a 2 inch lift on the hilux.)
    Instructions wouldn’t have hurt but it’s not too hard to work out what goes where.
    Definitely recommend these bash plates. Thanks guys.

  28. Daniel (verified owner)

    Fitted awesome

  29. Brad (verified owner)

    Awesome, quick and easy installation for a top quality product! Very happy and even quick deivery

  30. Phil (verified owner)

    Easy to install at home in the driveway, great advantage that they are stainless and will not rust unlike other powder coated steel bash plates once scratched. Very happy with my purchase

  31. Mike Hoare (verified owner)

    Recently upgraded from 2016 to 2021 Hilux dual cab. The 2 piece front and sump from my 2016 fitted straight onto the 2021 and I purchased the transmission plate as well.
    Good quality all round and good value.
    Only feedback I would give is that even though fitting is pretty straight forward, some instructions would be helpful. Also flush fitting allenhead screws would probably be better than the bolts supplied to avoid damage to the bolt heads. Lastly the transmission guard would be better if it extended a little further to protect the 4wd actuator.

  32. Michael Gillard (verified owner)

    Purchased a full set for my N80 Hilux, amazing quality and value for money @ $600 its cheap insurance

Why do I need bash plates?

Underbody protection or “bash plates” are an essential part of every 4×4 setup. They are designed to protect the underside of the vehicle from any objects that could cause damage. Ultimately, protecting the underbody of your vehicle with reliable bash plates comes down to a simple cost-benefit trade-off. As avid off-roaders ourselves, we believe it’s far cheaper and easier to replace a bash plate once every several years than it is to replace parts of your vehicle every time they get hit.

Why choose Custom Offroad bash plates?

Our Aussie-made bash plates are designed to protect the underbody of your 4WD from all kinds of off-road hazards, including rocks, trees, and other debris, as well as rust and corrosion from salt water. Most vehicles come with a standard protection set-up that’s usually only 1.5mm thick or made from flimsy materials such as plastic. These standard protection plates can typically only handle one hit before they need to be replaced. 


As true 4WD enthusiasts, we wanted to create a product that would allow us to tackle even the toughest tracks without compromising the most vulnerable parts of our vehicles. That’s why all our bash plates are made from durable stainless steel and are a minimum of 3mm thick. Unlike other products on the market, these premium plates are designed to take hit after hit so your vehicle will make it through its 4×4 adventure every time. Be prepared; bash your plates and not the vulnerable areas of your 4WD.

What thickness should I get?

The ideal thickness depends upon the vehicle and what kind of four-wheel driving you are doing most often. Thicker is not always better, since the plate needs to absorb as well as deflect any impact. For this reason, we’ve designed bash plates that are not only 3mm to 4mm thick but also have some flex in them as well. If you are unsure which of our custom bash plates is right for you, we’d be happy to advise on what option would best suit your needs.
Check out our FAQ page or get in touch with us for more information about what kinds of plates are best for your vehicle.

How do you ensure quality and durability?

A lot of products today (think TVs, fridges, and laptops) have a product lifetime designed into them. They last a few years, and then stop working almost like clockwork so that you have to replace them with the latest model. At Custom Offroad, our bash plates and 4WD accessories are exactly the opposite of this. These premium plates are made out of tough stainless steel and are expertly designed to endure the toughest off-road conditions, prolonging the life of your 4×4 for years to come.


To ensure our bash plates can withstand the test of time, we prioritise quality during every stage of our design and manufacturing process, including our choice of materials. We know that stainless steel is preferable over other less durable materials such as plastic or aluminium, especially if you plan on doing any beach driving. That’s why we’ve created the ultimate stainless steel bash plates that hold up well against harsh conditions and highly corrosive elements such as salt water, ensuring the utmost quality and durability.

Do you provide after-sales support?

Yes! At Custom Offroad Accessories, we are constantly looking for new ways to improve our customer service and product offerings. We endeavour to find the best possible solutions for your particular needs and seek to maintain good customer relationships throughout the entire lifetime of our products. We want you to get the best possible use out of our bash plates, and encourage you to contact us with any questions, comments, or feedback you might have.

Is it in stock?

Our aim is to consistently maintain our stock levels so that we can get our plates to you as soon as poosible. However, in the event your plate is unavailable, the turnaround is generally between 1 to 2 weeks. This timeframe is well below the industry average as our plates are made right here in Brisbane, Australia!

What is a Diff Drop?

A diff drop is a modification that physically lowers your diff away from the chassis in order to bring the CV angles back into alignment and closer to the factory specifications. Ultimately, the reason for considering a diff drop is to minimise the CV shaft angle that is increased by the addition of a suspension lift. As a general rule, if you have lifted your suspension by at least 2 inches then you should consider dropping the diff!

Does it fit with my brand of Diff Drop/Bull Bar?

Our plates are designed to fit with a large range of bull bar setups. If your 4WD currently retains the factory plates, and has a bull bar installed, then our plates will fit. The majority of our bash plates support a diff drop, however, we advise you consult the individual product pages for more information regarding the make and model of the 4WD you wish to fit plates to.

Stainless or Mild Steel?

After countless 4wd trips the one thing I kept replacing the most was my underbody protection. Although they did get a good beating the main problem was the rust factor, especially from my love of beach driving.

My car would look great all polished and washed except for underneath that was bent out of shape and covered with surface rust. I designed a set out of stainless steel because of the resistance to corrosion and the strength to get a better, more durable life out of my bash plates.

The stainless steel comes in a 2b matte grey finish which holds up great against scratching and with the extra strength of the stainless I’ve tried my best to knock them out of shape with no success. If you are after a bash plate that you would like to put on and not have to change every 6 months stainless is the way to go.

What is the Weight of the Plates?

Built using high-quality stainless steel, our Bash Plates provide the perfect weight to strength ratio for your 4×4. As each Make and Model is different so too is the weight of each plate. However, as a general rule, a 3 piece set of 3mm thickness, usually weighs between 24kg & 30kg, while a 3 piece set of 4mm thickness, usually weighs between 35kg & 40kg.

Please consult the product page of the vehicle you’re interested in for an accurate weight for your make and model of 4×4.
