Maybe that's another mid-year change? Mine was built mid Dec (I took deivery 1/21/2010). Mine has a panel that starts at the splitter and goes back about 18", but the 2011s I saw have that panel and then a second one that has a "belly", and yes, it looks like it would have to be removed to change the oil. BTW, I'll be glad to take it off your hands if you don't want it or think its too much of a pain

BTW, the stealership called and my aluminum axle girdle is in, so I need to take it in for a the labor-also-paid-by-the-dealer swap! Also, a tuner will be taking a set of the beefy LCAs off an '11 next week, and has already promised them to me, so my whole rear end will be updated to 2011 spec
