Hey all, im finally doing some mods on my X (other than those blue glow sticks i threw under the seats

) and i figure the most crucial thing to do within my budget is get some rocker skids. i see both shrockworks and calmini sells them, but which one do you think is better? I notice the calmini is a little bit cheaper, and i hear that shrockworks has been a little sketchy about shipping them with the right bolts.
also while im on the topic, im going to go wheeling again before the new bars arrive. i already damaged the stock step rails after going off roading for the first time in my xterra so i just threw them out. do you all think its unwise to go offroading without anythign down there: sliders nor the stock step rails? ie are the open sides more vulnerable to damage?
