Yea the BMW engineers must have made it into a one piece mold bc I found threads back in '08-'09 where it was still a two piece setup and no modifying was required. So if you have an oil cooler the passenger side needs to be opened up.

I purchased the newer one piece design and spent an evening with a dremel, exacto, and file cutting out each opening as I did not want to paint it again. It took a LONG TIME but was well worth it
