I bought a white one and and just received it. Quality is pretty good, and the white finish is nice as well. You bolt one end on the lower fender mount and the other side goes between the sprocket and frame, and is held in place with a zip tie. It covers everything as advertised and was $20. I ended up not mounting it because I would have to remove the wheel to get the rear lower fender screw out. I'm being lazy and the Mini ST owner didn't care either way, so it will be coming up for FREE soon in the classifieds.
you can just let some air out of the rear tire to access the fender mount screw instead of removing the entire wheel.

I have Tannus liners. I tried that and it was still very tight clearance and the bolt head was pre-mangled, plus the 'Mini owner wasn't to thrilled with the wires/plugs being covered.
wow, that plate provides a ton of protection for those exposed wires/cables. i too installed the tannus liners & put on the cascade plate during that process - regardless, the protection provided by the skid plate is necessary imo & not the place to wimp out because of hard-to-access screw mount.
