Can it be driven without the skid plate or is that bad?


Not to worry.  You can still drive it. 

Just don't go anywhere that you'll need a skid plate


k - thank you.

Here are pics of our newly powder coated skid plate:
 

 

 

 
It would have normally cost about $85 to get it done. Fortunately for us, I found out that I had an old friend (haven't seen this guy in 20 years) that owns a company that does it and he hooked us up. His company is Powder Coating Inc (PCI) in Oxford, GA. I love it!

Looks good.  Goes well with the theme of the truck.

i recommend bedliner.
 
google for a can of your preferred color, clean the plate up, and bedline it.  bedliner tends to stick pretty well to most things, and should stick to the plate well enough to hold up to mild beatings offroad (no worries with the wind).
 
My plate is currently spray-painted, but is due for a bedliner when i get it out of the shop.  Now, my plate is steel as the factory one got crumpled up pretty fast from my 'wheelin habits, which tend towards, well, towards crumpling skid plates. 
 
But bedliner will definitely do the trick.

I scrubbed mine with a scrotch bright pad and simple green then taped the area off and hand brushed some rust-oleum satin black. Has held up well.

when i painted my skid plate i cleaned it with acid rim cleaner  (do not use acid rim cleaner on h2 stock wheels) with a brush rinsed it and then i painted it with a soft fine brush with rustoleum exterior paint in the small cans works great and doesn't come of ive had it on since last summer and no problems.
