My real "BP" build truck has the hood louvers and they r pop riveted in and fully functional

Those look like the ones from rod louvers.
Likely the "11x17 Large" size

They are actually made by RunCool (https://hoodlouvers.com/product-category/size-large-hood-louvershood-vents/)

This thread is very old but I used to own a BP Tahoe with this style skid plate.

Here are some pics I have. Might have more. It went from the backside of the bumper support to the frame underneath and had aluminum plate screwed to that.

It also had a strap to keep the hood open a few inches with crazy stiff hood struts, had a 2” lift block up front and 2” lift springs out back from a company called Baja designs (I think, I have the springs still I can look if someone cares). They were in Cali and did up fitting for BP

It wouldn’t let me add more pics but I came across a few more I took. The second to last pic is the way they attached the front of the skid behind the bumper support

This is exactly how mine looks. I wonder who made the skid plates

interesting, I wonder if they are jointed that way to accommodate chassis flex. Someone mentioned "baja designs" as the manufacturer.

Baja fabrications is who was printed on my coil springs. Their website showed BP tahoes

Yep that’s who was printed on my coil springs. Their website shows BP tahoes

I looked at their web site (https://www.bajadesigns.com/) all they seem to show is OffRoad lights.
