On a D-Max the radiator sits right behind an open lower bumper aperture with almost nothing shielding it from below. A stone thrown up by the vehicle ahead, or a frozen lump of mud, is enough to leave you watching coolant steam off the road instead of driving on.

This plate closes that lower opening and takes the hits before they reach the core. Rival makes it from 6.0 mm aluminium in a silver finish.

Installation. A fitting kit is supplied.

Fitment. Isuzu D-Max from 2021 (model years 2021-2023 and 2023-), 1.9 l and 3.0 l diesel. Rival's own data is inconsistent here: the catalogue name describes the part as a radiator plate and lists those two engines, while the technical description mentions radiator and engine and the 2.2, 2.0D and 3.0D versions. We will confirm the fit for your vehicle before the order goes through.
