Mugen front under panel?

I hadn't seen anyone post this. Did anyone with the Mugen body kit get this?

Here is the stock underbody:

Here is what the under panel covers:

Looks like you still get access to the oil drain plug but it covers the towing hooks?

Let's forget the fact that you'll never see it and that rocks are going to scrape it up. I'm just curious how much you can improve on the design of the underbody of the car. TOV was pretty impressed with the stock configuration. I know Mugen has a reputation for actually improving the aerodynamics of the car through careful R&D of its products. But in this case, I don't know that a perfectly smoothed out panel is going to be superior to a panel that's designed to shape the air passing underneath the car. It seems something this smooth would more likely generate lift at high speeds.
