Skid Plate is bent

I would just apply duct tape and it may look leveled out

Such a wide range of uses for duct tape...it never ends!

Always have a roll of that, electrical tape, and paracord in my rig. Tape gets gooey around here, so put it in a separate plastic bag and replace it occasionally.

Oh yeah, got some of those too, I also carry a 6 pack of those big bastards that are used to connect HVAC duct lines. They are long, so I lay them along the bottom of the tool storage under rear seat.

I am on accessories site to order some for myself and did a quick search for you.

My search shows skid plate part is: GM # 85589118 and costs $382.03 and is "Out of Stock".

Still good idea to reach out to dealer and confirm for fitment before you order this part.

Yes this one you mentioned i need and also this one (84612142) which says it’s discontinued as per the attached image. I checked with my local dealer, and the prices are way high. Any idea on the discontinued item? How can i replace it then.

Stock skid plates on non bison are heinous - for pretty much any manufacturer.
I recommend replacing with Talon or Pinnacle offroad.
Talon even has plates for the diesel 1500s now

They aren't really skids, they are mostly fascia pieces and deflectors to keep road debris and incidental objects from making contact. Mostly sacrificial parts.

When you pull it to bend it back, may as well Line X it. It'll cover up some of the rush and add rigidity.
