Default Skid Plate for the Gas Tank

Looking to purchase my first of many skid plates for the XJ. The "gas tank skid plate"will be my first armor location. Want to see what aftermarket brands work better than others and what were the pros and cons. I'm looking for a full box design that's also simple in design. 3/16 vs 1/8. Don't really care if the tow hitch fits I'm planning on upgrading the rear bumper with a hitch built in once I know the two will be compatible. Some of the brands I'm looking at are Tomken and JCR off-road. Prices are good, product is top notch but wanted to see what others were using?

anything aftermarket would be better than a stock one and stock is better than nothing....BUT this has nothing to do with a Jeep Build and should have been started in Cherokee Chat ...
