Transmission Shield

It looks like during one of the last few outings I damaged the plastic transmission shield (broke the fixings where the 2 arrows point) by getting a clump of turf wedged in between it's back edge and the chassis cross member (see the squiggly line) and that's pushed the whole thing up in the middle.

I haven't yet tried a repair, but seeming as the replacement plastic unit costs over £50, I'm considering getting a more robust metal replacement - anyone aware of manufacturer/dealer for this or is it going to be an RLD special?
 LRs are a fond memory, apart from the maintenance.

ASFIR do one. Right hand shield in this pic (the left one is for the rear diff)




and here it is in-situ


www.tbruk.com sell them (ASFIR GEAR SKID PLATE 29-539061) for £120 inc vat. Look under vehicle specific parts, then skid plates. It's made of 6mm aluminium
 I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.
