Skid plate

Kind of an aside for this thread, but since we got on the Tacoma side of things, does anyone know if the burlier ~1/4" aluminum '24 Tacoma TRD Pro (front) skid will work on the LC?
 
Just installed my skid plates. If you reuse the existing bolts you probably don't need the bolts it comes with, really the only critical pieces would be the threaded clips to attach the plastic trim. Install was pretty easy, didn't need to use a jack or anything to hold up the plates, the keyhole slots worked great. Most difficult part was installing the bracket at the front, and that's just because it's not super clear how it goes.

Apologize if f this has been answered, I have looked through most of these threads. Is there anyone reporting real world experience with these skid plates functioning with some pretty good hits? Obviously nothing is going to defend against stupidity, but any real world reports of it successfully acting as more than a brush guard? Also any thoughts on aftermarket guards that my protect the radiator a bit better?
