Tortuga, I don't believe the intent of Craig's plate was to prevent damage form a "Joie Chitwood Daredevil Thrill Show" like off-road adventure. Perhaps just from the occasional slow roll on to a parking bumper curb or trailer loading ramp event. And I totally agree with the possibility of detaching the fiberglass surround on the oil cooler. What height is your car set at? Perhaps another inch on the springs would help? But not with jumping curbs....
The chrome plate under the steel bar would protect the fiberglass from minor scrapes as would the clear protective film from 3M.
