They look like they go up a ways on the front skid plate.
My warns dont go up vary far but they are thick. Ive got to drill a hole for the front diff to drain other than that the instaul was quick

but I would say the link Rich posted is going to be Cheaper, you might also want to check eBay.

Honda Foreman 500 2012 Skid Plates Full Belly Stick Guard Boots Frame items in Aluminum Products Inc store on eBay!

The belly plate looks narrow? Also, the closeup pics show hex head bolts hanging down. Are those the OE bolts re-used? It seems as though it would be better if they were recessed.

The price is certainly attractive over the competition.

I should have been more specific, the rear most bolts look like hex headed bolts protruding.

The Richochet stuff costs a lot more. I wonder why? I figure it has to be thicker, or higher-quality somehow.

Has anyone owned both? If so, which is better stuff?
I have the full Ricochet set on my 2011 Rubicon and it has been over some serious rocks and held up great. I wouldn't even consider dealing with AP after all the horror stories I heard about their customer service.

I got my complete set from the ATV superstore and the price was by far the best ($284.99) and the customer service was too. Not sure if they have stuff for the 12's listed on the site yet, but call and they will get you taken care of.

Hey! Looking for Ricochet ATV Skid Plates? Get a protective plate to protect your machine.
