Yep, that was me earlier talking about how I didn't want to add a belly pan. Well, it looks like I changed my mind since I ordered one of these today. The two-screw-removable front panel makes the prospect of extra work in changing the oil more acceptable for me. Mainly though, I like the idea of protecting the plastic coolant tank and adding an extra layer of protection for the otherwise exposed belly.
