Not sure I concur with battery and regulator down-low and up-front, but since that is the case best to protect as effectively as possible.
After reviewing several options I settled on the Camel ADV Gut Guard skidplate - 4.75mm tig-welded and powder-coated aluminum, #304 stainless steel subframe, lots of protection and venting, and way stronger than the stock piece. 15 minute or so install and it is time to go test it out.

Old skidplate - fins of regulator exposed.
New skidplate - great protection and look!
