Countersinking the thicker plate will practically alter the stance of the car if you retain the same shock settings. If you counteract this by adjusting the shocks, you'll find the front has more droop than usual. It's 1-1.5mm, but that's enough to notice: Especially considering the limited rear droop of the DEX as standard.

If you want to keep the edge from catching, you could use Shoe Goo, Epoxy, etc to make a shallow angled chamfer or smooth transition.

To be honest though, I'd try to keep the original thickness of the chassis if possible, as so not to alter the balance between suspension position at a given ground clearance
