Best block off plate, What's your opinion?

[pay2play]

Hi Rick, here are pics of the OFT plate I received today. I put it on after work and had the same clearance issues as nicklucie did. Kind of hard to see my
Sharper marks in the third photo, I may have removed 3/8s or more from the opening. This is on my 2011 XTX.

Was at Hay Days this weekend, always gets me into shred sled mode. Decided to tear it down for some routine maintanence and a few upgrades. Couple hrs and a few beers later block off plate done.

What did you use to cut the aluminum? Plasma cutter? Just wondering because I don't have a tool like that available to me. Anything else you can use to cut it?
