Page 175 of the build manual. The splash panel pictures looks nothing like what I have. Appears as though this panel has been redesigned.

Does anyone have close-up pics of this area clecoed together so I can figure out how it goes together? If it fits together like I think it does, then it's no wonder FFr redesigned this panel because the original is not good.

I received my "updated" panel in the usual white factory five box yesterday that looks exactly like what the picture does on page 175. Good think I'm a slow builder and I'll be able to put the "revised" panel in before the rear suspension. If you haven't got your revised panel yet, I'd give factory five a call, since I'm all the way out here in California -you should have received your box before me. I have no idea what the "original" sheet metal looked like or even what box its in. HTH. MF
