Ford F-150 (2021-2024) Bash Plate - VIKOR
VIKOR INDUSTRIESA 6mm aluminium underbody plate for the pre-facelift Ford F-150 (2021-2024), in place of the factory protection. It weighs 5kg, carries airflow channels so it does not choke cooling, and finishes in VIKOR's Luxe Matte Black powdercoat. It bolts up alongside the VIKOR Diablo bull bar range or works on its own.

| Make | Model | Variant | Body | Years | Fit |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ford | F-150 (pre-facelift) | All variants except Raptor | All cab styles | 2021-2024 | Direct fit |
| Ford | F-150 (facelift) | - | All cab styles | 2024.5+ | Does not fit - VIKOR make a separate plate (VUP1F150-26) |

VIKOR make a separate plate for the facelift truck and the two are not interchangeable. The changeover landed part way through 2024, which is why it is written as MY2024.5 rather than a clean model year. Order against your build date.
Key features
- 6mm high-grade aluminium, 5kg
- Airflow channels cut through the plate to keep cooling airflow moving
- VIKOR Luxe Matte Black powdercoat
- Designed to run alongside the VIKOR Diablo bull bars
Alloy rather than steel is a deliberate choice on this truck. The F-150 already carries a lot of weight forward, and everything you hang ahead of the front axle comes out of payload and works against the front springs. A steel plate with the same coverage is heavier and rusts at every stone chip. This one does not.

Frequently asked questions
Will it fit a 2024.5 or later F-150?
No. VIKOR make a separate plate for the facelift truck. Send us the build date off the compliance plate and we will match the plate to it.
Can I run it with a Diablo bull bar?
Yes. It is designed to bolt up alongside the Diablo Full Guard, Pre-Runner and No Loop bars rather than compete for the same mounting points. It also works on its own if you are not running a bar.
Does 5kg of aluminium actually protect anything?
6mm plate spreads an impact across the mounting points instead of punching through. It is built for rock and stump strikes, which is what the factory item is not built for. The factory plate is there for road spray and light debris.
Will it affect cooling?
The plate has airflow channels cut through it so air keeps moving to the radiator and the driveline. A solid plate with no channels is the version that causes cooling trouble.
